I have just been offered a teaching position with DoDEA overseas. I have 17 years of verifiable teaching and a Masters Degree. How can I find out how much I will start off being paid for my 1st year with DoDEA? Just the base salary. I have found the COLA and LQA allowances.

Thanks in advance.

IndyGuy haha, how does the COLA factor into your pay?

haha It's a tax-free addition to your pay. It varies wildly by location and time (depending on cost of living, currency exchange rates, etc.). Ours tripled up to $840 per pay period before dropping down to $500+.

It's listed as a percentage by location, but makes more sense when you use the calculator (if you haven't already):
