Command Sponsorship
Concurrent Travel is defined as an authorized move at government expense to an overseas location (family must complete the move jointly with the member or within 20 weeks of member's move). A Command Sponsored Tour refers to members who are returning to the United States (or going to another overseas base) from an Overseas Tour with newly acquired dependents (i.e. single member got married while overseas). Command Sponsorship requires Major Command and Air Force Personnel Center approval prior to making the move. Taking family member(s) on a Non-Command Sponsored Tour could result in all moving expenses being out-of-pocket for the member. Contact your squadron CSS to have a sponsor identified.
If you get married before you PCS, you must inform your commander and follow the procedures exactly as you are given them. The military will not pay for travel and housing of your spouse if you do not follow proper procedures.
All newcomers report to their respective Commander Support Staff (CSS) or Group Orderly Room for in-processing.
