Need some info from guys who've recently completed initial training or who are in "the know"

I'm an FO currently on mil leave (deployed) and am looking to come back to RAH around March. I will be on a new aircraft (former Q driver) and I have been gone long enough that I need the full up indoc all over again. I saw an email from HR saying the sim takes 10-12 weeks?!?! That's on top of the 8-10 days in IND for indoc and another week of systems. I don't remember this being the case. Can someone confirm this? Where is the sim for the 170? Do they send you home during gaps in training? I'm just concerned my wife will chop my balls off if I come home from several months deployed just to up and leave again for 12-14 weeks.

Thanks,
