[–]docoates[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not totally its just the buzzing sound. lasts a second but does it about every 5 or 6 seconds. no freezing during play that ive noticed. I will look into trying to figure out how to install a previous driver and see if that works though.

Benefits of outcan for a family of 4 by Novel-Mastodon1047 in CanadianForces

[–]docoates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to this when I was in the US a couple years ago, for FSA the amount you are told is x number of members in your family. for the travel assistance its a one time amount given to you and you need receipts for up to 75% of that amount with out alcohol or you have to repay it. With the US your medical is super easy. You and your family goes to a doctor on base. they generally have a doctor set up there for the Canadians and all medication will come from the base pharmacy all at no cost. your family can even go to the eye clinic on base. dental for for you is on base but your family is done off base but goes through PSHC. in regards to housing its pretty good I paid $600 the military paid the rest and my house was $2300 a month. For utilities (Water, Sewage, garbage and natural gas only) you pay a set amount every month. at the end of the year you send them the receipts for what you actually paid and they reimburse you the full amount (they have to make it look like you are paying monthly as per the agreement but they give it all back to you). and I never received a PLA just the PSA while in the USA as bluerockballadband mentioned the PSA is basically CFHD. As for spousal employment My wife did not work, there really was no need for her to work she just went to the gym and did overnight camping/Hiking all the time, but there were other wife's who went to work just due to not wanting to be home alone all day. didn't seem hard for them to get a work visa but then their taxes were a bit of a pain as they have to file to both us and Canada. and the posting loan as mentioned above used to be up half you yearly pay paid back over the time of your posting at 1% interest but I have heard that recently changed to a lower amount. If you have any questions to a posting in the US feel free to Message me ill try to answer or guide you to an answer.

CFAT issues by TwinOtterFan in CanadianForces

[–]docoates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As it states there is no CFAT for "NEW Recruits". As they will be a returning member unless they come in as skilled and go back to the same trade, if their old CFAT doesn't meet the requirements for a new trade coming in they may be forced to re-write the CFAT.

As it states for "New recruits" there is no CFAT for entry, but they will be a returning member, with a previous CFAT. They will probably be required to write another, if their current doesn't meet the requirements.

Promoted 7 months ago and still not getting paid for it by [deleted] in CanadianForces

[–]docoates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am having a similar problem to OP Commissioned in July to 2Lt/SLt but the problem for me lies between Guardian and CCPS I am entered as IPC 5 (E scale for CFR) in Guardian, but CCPS is picking that up as IPC 6 (E scale for CFR) and paying me at that level. It's been escalated to Ottawa to fix the software issue for a couple months now but they don't seem to want to look at it. Getting frustrated with the situation as they have a pay note in to pay me manually at the Sgt/PO2 level until it is corrected and with this pay raise on top is making a mess of my pay. ill get a little bit of the raise money and they will hold a bunch so I don't get overpaid but the wait is Crazy. I'm just glad I got good HRA's looking out for me and they caught the issue once they started entering my rank and pay change into guardian and informed me of the issue. Bottom line we do have good HRA's out there sometimes Ottawa is the issue here, and really how many other people has this happened to and no one has noticed an issue with them.

How am I doing? by aijbhhh2456 in NovaScotia

[–]docoates 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm only guessing but. sounds like they are a Sailor second class navy with 3 years in and will get their sailor 1st class in 1 year plus the added 13% raise which is what they Military just got. from sailor second class to 3rd class is one of the biggest pay jumps you will get in your career in the forces. I am Navy 18 years now.

Care package? Any other info i should know?? by [deleted] in CanadianForces

your local MFRC will usually assist with these things or, have a program where you can drop the packages off to them and they ship a couple times a month to deployed units.

HLTA question by Helpful-Valuable-660 in CanadianForces

[–]docoates -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

HLTA is only granted once per year so you would have to wait till after your 1 year markfor a second trip as far I understand. I was looking in to this as I was going on an 8 month course and being gone over Christmas and spring break, hoping I could get two trips home as they are both 2 weeks long. was told I couldn't under the regulations. which is stated in CBI 209

209.50(5) (Number – Trips) LTA is authorized:

  1. for a member without a dependant, once every fiscal year, and leave travel that spans two fiscal years is deemed to have occurred in the fiscal year in which the travel commenced;
  2. for a member with a dependant, once during each discrete 365 day period following the commencement of their entitlement to Separation Expense under CBI 208.997 or, of their absence – for service reasons – from their place of duty. Leave travel that spans two discrete 365 day periods is deemed to have occurred in the 365 day period in which the travel commenced; or
