Do your travel orders come via E-Mail? I looked at the calendar today and tried not to panic-- I've basically scheduled myself to leave the first week of August (2 1/2 weeks away?!), because that's when my school would like me to be there, but I still don't have orders yet. By scheduled myself to leave, I mean... I will have driven across several states to say goodbye to my family, sold my car, given my dogs to my parents while they're stuck in quarantine, and pretty much packed up my house. Haven't officially resigned from my job here, though!

How soon after getting travel orders can you leave? And how soon within that can you schedule your pack out?

Thank you!

HeART Teacher Is your firm offer different from your travel orders?

Happy Teacher HeART, yes. Firm offer is a letter that you sign and return. Your Travel Orders is a document that gives you authorization to enter the base, make arrangments, etc.

slpgeek When I got my travel orders it had the information for setting up the move. I'm not close to a base now so am doing "self-counseling" for the move online. And yes, I needed my orders to process the move and to set up tickets. Congrats on your offer!
