On this week’s Military Life podcast episode, I ask Defence Partner Nicole, who is currently posted in the USA with her ADF member and two children, ALLLL the overseas posting questions you didn’t even know you needed answered!
In PART ONE, Nicole and I talk about;
-Why the timing was right for their family to apply for an overseas posting
-What happens once you get the official word your family will be posted overseas
-Differences between the overseas posting Nicole and her Husband did 10 years ago and now
-The practical stuff like paperwork and appointments that need to get done and STAT
-What the deal is with Housing, Schooling and Medical care overseas
-The family support offered by Defence in Australia vs Overseas
-Breaking the overseas posting news to Defence Kids and the support available
-The process of choosing which stuff to leave and which stuff to take
-The financial impact of an overseas posting and the various allowances available
-The regret Nicole and her Husband felt about moving overseas once the dust had settled
Stay tuned next week for Part 2 of my chat with Nicole. There is so much more overseas posting insight to come.
