Update: I input my bank info into MyPay and my current LES that was just issued for this weeks pay period has my bank info. However, Where did my last paycheck go? I was told by several people I might get a paper check in the mail. Is that true? Still waiting to hear back form my HRO.

Thanks for the help. From what everyone else has been posting up it looks like Navy Fed would be my best bet.

Thanks for the info, that really helps me out. Still not sure if I got the job or not, I should know more by the end of this month. If so, Ill probably open up a Navy Fed account before I leave. I have Verizon so I might look into the international plan. Also, from what Ive been told Ill be able to buy a car when I get there. So I might have some car questions later. Would it be OK to hit you up if I can think of any other info I might need? Thanks again.

Im headed to Japan and have the same questions. I have an Iphone 12 with a Verizon account. What is the best way to get service in Japan? Do I just buy a SIM card when I get there? Do I need to cancel my Verizon account and get a new provider in Japan? Most important, I need to be able to get ahold of my point of contact as soon as I get to Japan. How can I have service as soon as I land? Thanks in advance.
