Kevinnnnnnnn Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 Hello all, my wife and I are waiting on an interview for her citizenship and she cant leave the country until the process is complete so its looking like I wont be taking leave before WOCS. I go to WOCS in September. What opportunities are there during the pipeline to take a month of leave (if any?) and has anyone taken leave out of country during this period? It will be to Korea. Also, is there an opportunity to take your 10 day PTDY for house hunting immediately after WOCS is complete and would this be advised? Thanks so much for any advice or response!

Adriek64 Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 you can tale leave during bubbles but, getting a full month of o-conus leave approved might be hard. Their focus is to get you out of here as soon as possible and taking leave is not nowhere near CoC's priority. Leave to Korea requires to be submitted well in advance and class rosters are published every 2 weeks. It's kind of risky even if it gets approved since they can cancel it at the last minute. My leave was canceled the week prior because I was scheduled to class up, luckily it was local leave so no money spent on tickets. Anyways...it is definitely possible but realistically chances are slim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriek64 Posted March 17, 2019 Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 just noticed you will be attending WOCs in September. Safest way to go it's submitting leave during HBL since that would only be a few weeks past wocs graduation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevinnnnnnnn Posted March 17, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2019 I figured it wouldnt be realistic, Ill keep my fingers crossed that the interview works out soon and if not, shoot for HBL. Thank you very much for the detailed answers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
