From what I know, Navy sails with Blue passports... Maybe a 6 deployment is different but all sails I have been on, we all use our blue passports and cost is reimbursed when you renew or if you do not have one when you get posted to a ship.

regarding passport discussion: Military will pay for a passport if they require you to have it, it is true sometimes you get a green passport etc. BUT In the PAT world, it does not work like that. Usually, you are sitting in a room watching TV all day, your PO2 gets an email from the school...

Well, I am a NES Op and I can only give information in regards to NETP and what to expect when you get to Esquimalt. You will be a PAT for a while, biggest thing will be waiting for your security clearance. You might get onto your QL3 in 2 months or 8... It took about 8 months for me start my...

There is a chance that I might be getting deployed to Mediterranean with one of HMCS. I am aware of certain danger pay and tax benefits. Question is do when do these benefits kick in. Do we start getting these benefits once we leave home port or when we are in the area? Do we still get these...

I only have about 2 years in, in April 2010 all CF members received a raise separate from the incentives. It was something around 2 percent, in order to compensate inflation etc. This year I assumed same would happen but still we are getting paid the same rates from 2010. I have found the...

WOW! I did not think it was true! As much as I hated Farnham, I am glad I did it! I think every CF member should experience it! Too bad they took it out...

NES Op... I thought that was pretty clear. lol I am finally starting course very soon!

Maybe it does not matter to a SGT how long BMQ is but it matters a lot to a new recruit/applicant, it matters a lot... I was there a year ago... Edit: Added coma

I am not sure if this is the right section, feel free to move it :) I want to donate my organs but in British Columbia organ donor registry is associated with your provincial health care  card number. When I joined, I canceled my provincial medical and have no such number. I was wondering if...

Quick update, there is QL5 Course running in Esquimalt...

I have found a lot of differences and it caused me to sell my place instead of keeping it because IRP has real estate incentive and non-IRP does not. No marketing incentive, no allowance for paying rent and mortgage at the same time.. etc etc. I wish they were the same benefits...

Thanks George, I researched about the move part etc. I know how it effects everything else. I was concerned about the PMQ eligibility and seems like it wont affect it. cheers

Are there any property ownership restrictions that might affect getting a BMQ? I am interested in living in a PMQ for the time being but I own2 properties in another city and I am planning on buying another one where I am, as an investment... cheers

Well, it took me a while but here it is for future reference! http://hr.ottawa-hull.mil.ca/dgcb/cbi/includes/cbi_coverpage_e.asp?sidesection=6&docid=66

I am looking for non-irp move policy, find out about entitlements. Can any body provide a link? cheers

Thanks for the info and good advise! I will be sitting on pat for a long time at least 4 months, because I need secret security clearance to start my QL3. I am considering taking some university courses. That is why I am asking all these questions... I already have 3 full-time terms worth of...

And then also, which pay scale does CEOTP fall under? A,B,C,D,E?

Thank you for the correction. I am already in as an NCM. Completed my Basic, waiting for my QL3. I obviously do not know if this program will still exist by the time I am a LS. I would only be able to do it if my pay does not drop to Naval Cadet rate.. Also, does anybody know if my 4...

Maybe I am getting the names mixed up. I am talking about the program where you become an officer and have to complete your degree in 9 years part time as you are working. I taught that was called COTP ( Continuing Officer Training Program). If I got the name right, than yes COTP still...

Just about 4 weeks, pretty new...
