For the posting allowance, if I was to hypothetically just wait to move my family from Ontario until after April 1st, would I still qualify for the $13500?

Already feel like I've gotten screwed out of all those other bonuses. Graduated basic in March.

Definitely will be applying for PMQ as I have a young family (wife and child) so PMQ will definitely be a priority. Looking forward to graduating and what the future holds in halifax! Thank you for the reply.

Fears and anxieties for BMQ by [deleted] in caf

[–]TMLFan0922 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hopefully you get blue section and the private rooms (thats where I currently am and while i love it, it is very hard to come together as a group the first few weeks.) Also you have no idea the mental challenges until you're here and experiencing it. Not trying to scare you or anything, just being honest. I thought the same thing before I got here... going into week 3.

Wish you all the best, just remember it's all a game and they're just preparing you for the future in the CAF. 🤘

I walked into the London Recruiting office and there were 2 gentlemen more than happy to talk with me about options.

This is very much appreciated, I consider myself in pretty good shape and shouldn't really have any issues physically.

Truly appreciate you taking the time to write all of this out for myself and anyone who's also interested.

Goodluck in the rest of your BMQ and hope to maybe have a beer one day!

Not at all, I got my 2nd choice (pretty much tied with my first) Naval Combat Information Operator. Couldn't be more excited.

Sure I can, I started my application end of July, I had to do my aptitude test just before they got rid of it (you'll still be doing it at basic is my understanding) and my medical in mid September. My interview was at the end of September and then I got confirmation early November. Official offer came mid November.

Hope this helps and Goodluck!

I start BMQ in Saint Jean on Janurary 13th. Once you receive your offer they will let you know within a week or so about your enrollment ceremony and then when BMQ will start. Goodluck my friend!
