If I am reading the LOA correctly.
If I choose a 3 year commitment, I get to move my HHG, but no housing allowance.....since the housing allowance is only mentioned in the shorter 2 year commitment. If I go for 2 yrs, I get to store my stuff, and then ship whatever I buy back, space A (and I get 10k versus the 10k or 79CH whichever is higher I get in existing contract)
No COLA in anyway shape or form.
Maybe a FDA bonus section 6 depending on my level of commitment.
The only thing I like is the discussion of STV where I am assigned a modified SIBA and have a hotel room for the entire stay and get per diem the entire time
(approx 140 euro/night for CDG==4200 euros for 30 days)
(825 HKG/night==24750HKG)
But, why do I have to submit a pay log to get the per diem when I am not on a trip. For the STV, why can't the company program 28 days of per diem and subtract the per diem I would get on a trip.....what happens if I am on a STV and get assigned an out and back trip with no associated per diem.....would the computer still give me per diem or kick it back since I have a pairing over that same period of time?
I thought the ANC LOA was a good deal and voted yes.
This doesn't look like a good deal to me, and I am going to vote No
In theory, it would be great to be single and go there, but this package is a much poorer deal than even the much maligned benefits given to our military folks who are assigned overseas.
