re-posting this here, maybe someone can help me out...
I am looking for information regarding Service couples and IR vs Restricted postings.
I have searched through pubs but am not fully understanding it. I would appreciate it if someone can explain it to me in laymen's terms.
Here is our scenario: we are a reg-force service couple (common-law) and are currently located in the same geographical area.
I have gone through a selection process in order to be posted to a new unit out of province most likely being posted in the next two months.
we can not be posted together as there are no positions for his trade inland. that's the reality of a hard sea trade....BOOO!
my intention is to move to the new unit without my spouse or HG&E until which time we can be reunited at my new posting (he still has to work and we would still be renting our apartment until June 2015) so we are talking about 10-12 months before he is able to move to my location.
I would live in the shacks till then.
My spouse is listed as my dependent. if he takes the route of VR (not finishing the contract) we understand that he wouldn't be entitled to a move himself, but because he is listed as my dependent would we still qualify for a move of DHG&E because of me?
would we qualify for IR or Restricted in this case? and when would I apply or request it? is there a form or is it a memo through COC?
hope this post makes sense..please help us know what our options are and if this plan is a viable option.
i thank you for your time.
