I am trying to get posted back home due to personal circumstances but unsure which way I should word the memo... I am trying to figure out the difference between a cost contingency move vs compassionate posting... It is my understanding that compassionate status means you are undeployable and are unable to perform your duties; Whereas contingency moves are based on personal circumstances that do not limit your deployability and activities.
I don't really care about the career limitations as I my pcat is currently in review for DMEDPOL (which i have been told will most likely be a medical release)
I have been posted away from my partner and I would like to make my way home while i wait response from DMEDPOL (1-2 year wait currently).
I am not going to get into the specifics of all the circumstances but based on injury, would I want to submit a memo for compassionate status or a cost contingency. Technically since i am on PCAT on light clerical work - no force test etc, I am undeployable which would not meet the criteria for cost contingency move... So does that automatically mean my only way is to ask for compassionate status?
Has anyone ever heard of someone getting compassionate status due to injury?
Thanks a lot
Edit: Another possibility I have been wondering about is now that i have a tcat for review for a PCAT at DMEDPOL if i am eligible to be posted to the TC... Could i be potentially posted to a TC back home and then AP'd to my home unit as I can still do the majority of my job...
