I received an email stating my travel orders are ready to be accessed in TOPS. However, I can not access TOPS as I do not have a CAC card, and just to REQUEST access, I need a dodea email address (which I do not have as a new hire...) So my orders are dangling in front of me, but I can not view them. Anyone else in this situation?
There were quite a few papers but overall it was easy, but I wish I had known what the forms were ahead of time and I could have had my daughter get her doctor's visit on the college campus but I got the forms the week of her finals week which was not a good time for her.
If anyone else has not gotten the forms yet and wants them, post your e-mail.
My husband said, "It's frustrating because you need to do steps 1-10, but they won't tell you what steps 3-10 are till you did 1-2."
So true! Do one or two steps. Wait.... while I am waiting it would be nice to work ahead on the next steps.
I am so happy to have this job... I am so happy to have this job..... learn patience....
As for fingerprints, I think it's going to depend on where you are. In Texas, my fingerprint locations had the cards and provided them to you. I didn't have to get cards ahead of time, but I made sure I had the cart type number with me to ensure I got the correct card.
SandArtI saw that, DoDEAHopeful, and they fly to Iwakuni. Can't wait to learn what my options are for that. We are not sending our dogs till December, so I do not know if that will complicate things or not.
Anyone know if the Social Studies position at Camp Lejeune was filled yet? I made the list but no interview yet. I know they have graduation this weekend and the principal is very busy but other offers are coming in and I've got to make a decision.
If you don't have a sponsor, contact your school. The sponsor can give you an idea of what's normally done, how to do it, and the process particular to the school you're going to.
Some schools have a "committee" that handles all of this - from lodging to getting you a post box to putting together a basket of local treats and lodging essentials and transportation from the airport.
Does anyone anyone happen to know if having my husband along counts as "With family" in calculating LQA? Or does that just mean whether or not you have children? Looking at the rate report and trying to figure out what our budget for housing will be.
IdaI talked with my friend in Germany already and her best guest is that "with family" means a spouse or single parent 1 child. Then Dependents 2-3 would be spouse and one child, etc. That is how we are reading it anyway based on her advice.
