Do I go Permanent Change of Station (PCS), Temporary Change of Station (TCS), or Temporary Duty (TDY)?
You will be going on a temporary assignment requiring temporary change of station (TCS), permanent change of station (PCS), or long term TDY. As such, it is very important that you have a clear understanding upfront of the entitlements and discretionary allowances associated with each type of travel duty. In addition to the expertise of your Program Manager, your home activity should have a designated travel advisor in the Personnel or Comptroller Department. They should be your point of contact, advising you on the type of LTTD the home activity will allow for your particular assignment and the specifics of your move.
