Check-in Procedures

In-processing procedures

All incoming personnel must report to KALSU Replacement Company, 2443 20^th Street, no later than the report date on their orders to sign in (24 hours a day / 7 days a week). All Soldiers reporting during duty hours (6 a.m. to 5 p.m.) must report in duty uniform and in accordance with Army grooming standards found in Army Regulation 670-1.

Soldiers reporting during non-duty hours may be in appropriate civilian attire. For more information on KALSU Replacement Company, contact 270-461-1498 or visit Fort Campbell website, Facebook page or access the Contract Audit Manual Regulation 600-8-101.

Prior to your arrival at Fort Campbell, it is imperative that your absence in IPPS-A is done correctly to avoid losing any entitlements. The end date for your PCS absence will be the day before your report date. Even if you are reporting early, your PCS absence must cover you through your original report date. Please refer to absence help tool to assist with your absence in IPPS-A.

Transportation to 1LT J. Robert KALSU Replacement Company WILL NOT be provided. Soldiers are responsible for providing their own transportation to sign in. There are several shuttle services available if you are flying into the Nashville Airport; Groome transportation, Uber, Lyft, etc. Upon arrival to BNA, there is a QR code located at the information desk for the transportation of Fort Campbell Soldiers to KALSU.

In-processing is organized to reduce the time needed to process into post. The process will take approximately 10 duty days. Haircuts and uniforms will be inspected daily to ensure adherence to Army and Division standards. In-processing includes stops with Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System, personnel, dental, medical, newcomers’ orientation, Division Command team brief, and many other important areas. Smartvouchers will be completed with the finance team, embedded with KALSU upon arrival.

Information regarding assignment of on and off post housing is provided by the Fort Campbell Family Housing and Housing Services Office, both located in Building 2702 on Michigan Avenue at 270-798-3808.  Soldiers and Families are encouraged to contact the Fort Campbell Family Housing Services Office, before signing a contract, for a housing assessment and information on the Rental Partnership Program. Soldiers wishing to take permissive temporary duty for house hunting should get this approved at their losing unit. Any Soldier that did not received PTDY from their losing unit can have the opportunity to receive PTDY at Fort Campbell; either before Division in processing or at the end of in processing prior to shipping out to gaining unit. If you are authorized PTDY from your prior duty station, you do not need to report to the housing office to have your orders stamped on the day the PTDY begins. Your leave form will need to be signed by a lieutenant colonel or above and have the correct PTDY statement in the remarks section. Contact your S1 for further guidance on PTDY.

Barracks rooms and linens are only provided for single Soldiers, Sergeants and below. Barracks rooms will be assigned and made available once the Soldier has signed in and arrived to KALSU Replacement Company. Married Soldiers, and Soldiers who are Staff Sergeants and above, regardless of marital status, should seek private accommodations (reference on or off post housing assignments above). Soldiers seeking private accommodations can be authorized Temporary Lodging Expense. This allowance is intended to partially pay members for lodging/meal expenses incurred whole occupying temporary lodging during a PCS move. TLA reimbursement is limited to 14 days and is capped at $290 per day. For reimbursement the requirements will be a completed DD1351-2, PCS Travel Orders, DFAS Form 9098, and an itemized zero-balanced lodging receipt.

What to do if you get married en-route?

If you get married en-route, bring a copy of your marriage certificate, leave and earnings statements, and a completed DA FORM 5960 with you when you in-process DEERS and personnel. This way we can get your pay adjusted as soon as possible. If you get married before you PCS, go to your unit S1 for guidance to add your spouse to your records. It is very important that your PCS orders state that you have a "dependent"; having a dependent increases certain PCS entitlements. In order for your orders to be amended to state “with dependents”, your marriage date must precede the date on your orders.

Documents needed for in-processing:

• IPPS-A Absence Request (end date must be the day before the report date) (PTDY/HRAP if applicable)
• PCS orders (with amendments if applicable)
• Dental records (Not needed to sign-in)
