Help!! - Military Moves and Relocation

CorpsmanWife · 10-08-2009, 03:32 PM

Okay so we are supposed to be leaving from Colorado to CT next week. We are leaving on a payday because we are unsure if we have enough money to get there. I tried to go down and request the DLA advance but they told me they couldn't help me because we are Navy and it was an Air Force office. We don't have a Navy base in Colorado!!! I don't know what to do, my husband isn't able to do anything where he is at and I am really worried about the financial situation.
Does anyone have any suggestions/advice????

I am a bit confused, are you pcs'ing? Did this come in a short note? I thought the military would pay for your move but I am not so experienced with it.
Good luck and hope it all works out?

The military doesn't really pay for moving but remburses you. Sometime and some ppl can get them to pay first but it's hard.
My only advice is to see if you can borrow some money for a few months. It will take forever for the Navy to pay you back.

Can you get an AER loan?? I am not sure if just the army has those and pay it back then they reimburse you??
