Hey yall! Well my bf is in boot camp right now and he graduates Dec. 22. I really cant wait! And he gets to come home till Jan. 2. So i am just exstatic! We have always talked about getting married and i think when he comes home we will get engaged! And then after he is finished with A school he said he will get another 2 weeks and i think thats when we will get married! But i just have a couple of questions... Is there really a packet of paper work you have to do?? And if so can we go ahead and do it before he goes to A school or is it after we are married paper work? Another thing do we have to move in together right away or can i finish school and then move up there with him? And would they really pay to move all my stuff and his? I was just wondering! Thanks again yall. have a good night!

i don't know anything about a packet of paperwork. jason never filled out anything before we were married. after you are married your boyfriend will have to add you to his page 2 and you'll need an ID card.

with schools they won't pay to move you up there unless the school is longer than so many days. if he goes to C school after A school they won't move your stuff unless it's long enough. i can't remember how many days for sure, i think 120. his orders have to have a certain code on them for the navy to pay for you to move. they will pay to move you though once he recieves orders to a duty station and you're on the page 2. you can wait to move until after your done with school too.

dh and i got married after A school and then he went on deployment and i stayed here in ohio instead of going it alone where he is stationed. the only thing i know is that i think they go by ohio's BAH instead of his duty stationed BAH since i am still living here. we didn't fill out a packet either. but dh had to do all the paperwork all did was take the form he sent me to the closest base and get my id. now i just sit and wait. congrats!

My df and I are going through this at the moment. He got a packet from the legal office and we have a load of paperwork to get through, including a letter to send to his commanding officer to ask permission to marry, physical check-ups for both of us, various documents concerning visas etc (as I'm a British national). There's a lot to get through, but I'm not sure if it's necessary - for a marriage licence in Japan there's no requirements apart from the declaration that you're not already married. After we're married, I'll have to go on his page 2 and life insurance document and I'll have to get base ID. That's about all I know...

I got married in june and we didn't have to do any paper work but he did have to ask if we could get married and i had to get a military id but as far as i know thats been it.. the only advice I would give you is stay close to home until he's home for a while because we didn't do that and I moved to va from ga in august and he left in september :( its been very difficult and lonesome
