I retired from the CF last year but I wasn't given the provincial tax document upon my release. I informed my former chain of command but it appears that they were moved to other departments. Should I deal with the Release Section? I'm from Ontario but I worked in Quebec most of my career and...

Just wondering what it means because I never saw that abbreviation before.

Thank you for your answer. I don't know certain terms like AVOTP, APS18 and No-cost move to another unit (how does this work?) Is there a list of abbreviations used in the CF? or Would you mind explaining them to me?

Does that mean I can go work in another job after Aug. 2019? And if I wanna switch trade in the forces, I can do that after Aug. 2017 because my obligatory service period is over by then? Because I'm not quite happy with my posting for several reasons. 

While browsing through my profile at EMMA I wonder about two categories 1.obligatory service: Aug, 2017 and also 2.Expiry date: Aug, 2019 My guess is that my contract with the military should be renewed by Aug, 2019 if I choose to stay or I will have to serve until Aug, 2017 if I decide to...

I'm an AVS tech. I'm almost done with my QL3. My first posting was changed from Montreal to Bagotville recently. I'm somewhat familiar with Montreal but not Bagotville and Sagueny. I don't have a car for now and I was wondering if I should live on base in a shack (shared or doesn't matter) or...

Thanks for all the replies but my posting was switched to Bagotville. Now I have to start thinking about going there.

I'm in Borden and doing my training. I just got my first posting message and the military is going to send me to Saint-Hubert. It's time for me to brush up on my French and start improving it. I'm an AVS tech and hope to work on helicopters. I think Griffon is the only helo that's in the base...

It's all good. Thanks!

Officer's mess has one? I'm a NCM but we sometimes see officers eating in our mess hall. But still I'm reluctant to go there. I would if I could. Still my best bet is to check out the music building. Thank you so much.

Thank you. I will check it out. I remember seeing the Legion house in Angus. Do they also have one there?

I just got posted in Base Borden few weeks after my BMQ. The O'mega mess in St Jean had a good piano practice on. But I couldn't find any piano in Base Bordenear despite it being much bigger than St. Jean Garrison. I didn't know where else I should ask this question. So I asked here. Thank you.

I'm a NCM-SEP student. It's been almost a year since I joined the CF. I was given a student guide but to my surprise I just found that it's not a whole book. I tried to find an electronic version but haven't been able to find it. Can someone help me find it?

Thanks for the replies. Yes. I joined as a NCM-SEP. This was in my acceptance email. - Enrolment as 00136 AVS TECH in the uniform of Air with a VIE of 7 years and Obligatory Service of 2 month for every 1 month of subsidized education. By the time I will graduate, I will have spent 18...

I recently joined the airforce and VIE of 7 years. But I signed up for a 5-year contract. What is the significance of VIE? Thanks.

I began doing NCM-SEP at a civilian college for avionics this year. My ULO ,representative or someone in the military who oversees my progress and details, wrote me an email that looks something like below: _________________________________ Good Morning: As per the email pease reply to subj...

I hear Pilot is the most wanted trade in the Canadian Forces. I was also told that the video on the website tells you the Canadian Forces will train you from scratch to become a pilot but the reality is that a lot of candidates already have flying experience. Things got competitive and it makes...

Hi guys, So I went to my medical exam and interview on Tuesday. I'm now merit-listed. They both went well except I had to take an extra step toward my medical test: they gave me a form to be filled out by an eyedoctor (either by an ophthalmologist or optometrist). The following day I had it...

Thank you. Another question: Is it possible to be selected without being listed on the merit list?

Hi. What does it mean to be "merit listed?" Thank you.
