Hello everyone. I am currently a DDESS employee and am interested in applying for a position overseas. I was wondering if my husbabnd's medical condition would prevent me from getting a job. Coming from a military standpoint, we always had a medical boaRd interview before overseas moves. Is it the same in DODDS?
haha It would likely depend on the condition and the location you would be going to. Your dependents' health does not come into play at all until/unless you are offered a position. I forget the exact wording, but you would then need to provide a letter from a Dr. stating that he does not have a medical condition that would preclude him from living overs...See More

HelpOthers haha is correct. The employee must pass a physical, but family members need only have a letter stating they can go overseas. However, if your spouse needs to return to the States while you are employed, you may be in a tough situation of choosing to leave and repay moving expenses, etc., or be separated from each other for a time.
