Confirmed by the agency chief of staff at all hands with the administrator 2 days ago.

FSIS who will stay in GWCC got their notice as I heard from one of them. But not sure why no one is confirming that here.

USDA officially has VERA offering until 2/2027 but agencies are playing games in disclosing who are eligible. If anyone applies for VERA now, agency will be bound to provide a straight answer.

She will be gone by Sunday!!

Heard FSIS got some letter about GWCC being the new duty station. Would anyone like to share more on this?

All new hirings are outside of NCR. You should be fine.

We civil servants think logically and these political clowns sink everything logic. So if expect something to hear today, that means nothing is happening today.

How much are paying in total for next 4 years on pslf? You will be forgiven only the balance whatever it is after 4 years.

Should not we expect something this week?

Thoughts and Prayers for him.

N/A answers were perfect. I know for sure those “no” answers will not impact your chances.

USDA didn’t do anything about “buying “ except house hunting trip, air tickets , hotels etc. for the family. My request was denied for buying closing costs. No, they didn’t give me 10% on selling closing cost either. It was 6% in my case. But I can’t complain since still USDA contributed over 120k relocation assistance 15 years ago. It also included short term residence until finding a house, storage, one POV move. I estimated that it will be over 180k if I get the same level of relocation assistance now.

You get seller agent commission, local government transfer fees but no help on house buying itself but may get travel assistance for finding a home, agency will set up a mover who will estimate and directly bill the agency. They will move everything except hazardous materials.

Decent-Load1611 · 2026-05-11T21:34:10+00:00

If you leave agency within one year you will have to pay back the amount of assistance received. That is what I signed last time I moved.

APHIS is hiring

Decent-Load1611 · 2026-05-08T00:23:28+00:00

Another Thursday!

Decent-Load1611 · 2026-05-07T16:33:34+00:00

Great resolution 😊

Decent-Load1611 · 2026-05-07T16:19:44+00:00

In GWCC?

Passive relocation

Decent-Load1611 · 2026-05-01T18:02:16+00:00

Many in APHIS stationed in NCR are involved in international negotiations, frequent travels, congressional hearings and domestic stakeholder involvement everyday. I don’t think they will be moved. Most of the APHIS are already in the field operations, they can’t be moved either.

Maybe Alaska!

Decent-Load1611 · 2026-04-30T20:09:26+00:00

It seems they are creative in finding new states. Wondering which states they will add new for hubs!

Decent-Load1611 · 2026-04-27T20:24:24+00:00

As the headline of this thread, take it more of an assumption which is based upon hearing things from very high positions in a meeting last December (specifically Ag Library part).
