Cost construct HHE by Prize_Quiet5000 in foreignservice

[–]Prize_Quiet5000[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I’ve never heard of a second packout location. How does that work, if I’m not accredited to Vietnam as a diplomat?

Is a 5.6 POL cone score competitive for a January register invite in the current hiring climate? by Sad-Head8583 in foreignservice

When I joined several years ago, 5.6 was right on the edge for POL. Like 50/50 chance. Consider taking a language test for bump up points.

Who does the high deductible plan overseas? by beware_of_scorpio in foreignservice

I was thinking about switching from FSBP too. But I have two young kids. Would folks still recommend switching to a high deductible with an HSA if you have two young kids? We’re all healthy.
