How many weeks before BMQ did they tell you your date?

[tannerthehammer]

I'm doing my BMQ/SQ this summer and I am hoping they won't wait till last minute to tell me my dates because I have to apply for a leave of absence from work and it will take 2 weeks to come through....

My husband only got 2 and a half weeks notice but he was the last one in our region to find out so I don't think that that is the norm.  The other guys that got sworn in got 5 to 6 weeks notice.

This has been talked about a lot around here..

In short ... you'll get your call when you get your call. You don't know, I don't know, a lot of people around here don't know. We're all in the same boat and we'll find out whenever they decide to tell us.

I knew it would be coming up in a while as soon as they had enough people, then I got the official dates one week before.

Out here in the west, the schedule is posted online  http://www.army.forces.gc.ca/lfwa_hq/it/calendar.htm
you may want to check to see if your area has a similar resource.
Of course as with everything in this great establishment, details are subject to change for no apparent reason, or notice
