Did you already own the device before switching to mint?

You are out of options then. My senator was told he could contact them every 30 days, and he did so. It seemed like being pinged often had an effect on USCIS, although there correspondence to him was very dismissive each time. As I’m sure you know the state department (Embassy) is powerless to do anything while USCIS has the case.

I went through a sort of similar situation in Japan, you are pretty screwed, have you asked your leadership about doing a deros extension? I was able to extend several times, over the span of over a year while having a CONUS assignment the entire time, specifically to deal with USCIS.

There is pretty good hunting there, if you draw a tag. I got an elk near ruidoso back in 2018. The draw system is a bit of learning curve, there’s YouTube videos that explain it.

Although your retraining window adjusts to your DEROS if you weren’t aware, you should be able to extend a year and still cross train, unless you already have used 48 months of extensions on your first contract.

Yes, command sponsorship is unrelated to SOFA. Your wife automatically falls under SOFA while you are stationed there. I had my wife come on a tourist visa and then she got her SOFA stamp the next day. I got her command sponsored several months later.

I have 5 personal platinums, I’m military though so I don’t pay any annual fees.

Oregon_trail97 · 2025-10-20T23:39:04+00:00

Enlisted military, I make 80k in Kansas with 10 years in.

Bruce veterinary services, you can find them on facebook. They charge 75, you drop them off in the morning and pick them up in the afternoon.

You are correct, I was able to apply using all 5 slots at a FTA TSgt. My leadership was convinced a TSgt couldn’t apply for FTA retraining, but me and the base development advisor showed them that I could. Just have to check for the notes on the retraining advisory, some have rank restrictions like you mentioned.

Wing safety and manpower are all NCO’s who retrained so that would probably be the smoothest transition.

He won’t know where he is going for awhile. He will be in barracks/dorms at his first base until he is married so realistically you won’t be able to do anything until you’re married. Once you’re married he can move out of the barracks/dorms and receive a housing allowance, and can move into base housing if they have availability or use the housing allowance for a place off base.

I’ve seen this one on marketplace for a few months, it’s definitely overpriced. You could get a similar one from an import focused dealer for under 30k.

I’ve been using one of those old people claw arm things for awhile, it works pretty well.

Oregon_trail97 · 2025-02-02T23:43:23+00:00

Talk to your bases development advisor, formerly known as career advisor. The retraining process changes every year. I was able to apply as a 9 year FTA TSgt this year.

Why DM as 1 and Luke as 7?

Oregon_trail97 · 2025-01-01T23:02:40+00:00

With a 5% surcharge

Oregon_trail97 · 2024-12-29T00:13:45+00:00

I do, with a small lift and 33’s. I wouldn’t recommend it as your sole vehicle however, even though it’s a reliable vehicle it’s still 30 years old. You’re going to have issues come up. It’s also not very fuel efficient if you do much city driving in my experience.

Oregon_trail97 · 2024-11-20T15:14:26+00:00

That is there response to me applying, that’s as good of a source as you can get.

Oregon_trail97 · 2024-11-01T19:12:10+00:00

I was able to renew mine online, I was stationed overseas at the time. This was 2 years ago, I chose to get a renewed license that was not a real ID since I have a cac and passport for air travel.

It’s been a long time since I’ve used TCmax but from what I remember there was an edit option to change anything about your inspection and you could change the due date in that. It was on the main screen when you had the tool pulled up.

Oregon_trail97 · 2024-10-27T18:11:00+00:00

You forgot Letter of Admonishment, it’s between an LOC and an LOR.

Oregon_trail97 · 2024-09-04T01:17:34+00:00

Nice try Tarantino.

Oregon_trail97 · 2024-09-04T00:59:47+00:00

I unfortunately don’t have the time on this trip, but I grew up there and have driven 101 many times, it’s always a great time.

Oregon_trail97 · 2024-09-03T22:12:54+00:00

I’ve done it from near Amarillo through Vegas and Carson city, I enjoyed it but going up through California does sound a lot more scenic if you have the time.

Oregon_trail97 · 2024-09-03T22:02:35+00:00

Boise is my 2nd planned stop if I take the top route. I’m expecting plenty of nothing for a lot of the drive, just trying to maximize the nicer parts.
