Hi,
Husband has done his time in the forces (over 20 years) and is possibly looking at coming out sometime next year. Thing is, that I want to be moved this summer so that our children can start a new school in september.
Does anyone know if we can get moved out of our final married quarter before he finishes his tour - and if we can get the final move (into our own house) paid for by the army?
Thanks in advance :eek:

Try having a look at the final tour of duty application in JSP 752. The answer may well require some help from your HR Admin.0

dont asume that you will or wont get anything paid for....ive heard many people say you dont get your first move paid for yet we did- hotel for a night aswell! Maybe speak to welfare explain the thinking behind wanting to move and se if they can help at all?0

You must speak to your Unit admin or the Army (depending on your service) IERO (Individual Education and Resettlement Officer). these guys know the resettlement entitlement like the back of your hand and are all ex-military so have all resettled themselves. they are collocated with Army Education Centres. Dont rely on vague advice by a young soldier in the admin office or someone who has not claimed it themselves. this could be worth a lot of money to you, make sure you ask the right person.0

I would have a read of "JSP 752 Chapter 7 Section 4 - Final Tour of Duty".
See of that helps you out.
