During a permanent change of station move, individuals should maintain important paperwork with them at all times to decrease the potential for loss or identity theft.

It is imperative that you check in with your Command Pay and Personnel Administrator (CPPA) at your command as soon as possible and the Housing Service Center within 72 hours of arrival so that you can start your TLA, submit your travel claim for payment, start the process for other pay and entitlements and update your RED/DA Formerly Page 2.
Records Check-in
Newly-gained personnel will process their receipts with their CPPA immediately upon reporting on board.

To accomplish this the CPPA must present the servicing personnel support detachment a gain package for processing which consists of the following:
Unnecessary delays will only adversely affect your pay as well as the settlement of your TLA. Scheduled or house-hunting leave is highly discouraged until your gain package is completed.
For further information, forms, procedures and policies contact your CPPA.
