In this episode of Military Kids PCS Ops, we break down the critical first steps for handling school records under MIC3, EFMP handoffs, childcare waitlists, and deployment routines during PCS moves. Learn how to request transcripts, immunizations, and IEPs from your current school at least six weeks early, confirm compact coverage for seamless enrollment, and upload documents via base portals. We cover updating EFMP profiles 90 days ahead, forwarding medical summaries to the gaining installation, and securing temporary case managers. Discover why calling child development centers immediately upon receiving orders secures earlier waitlist spots, and how mapping consistent homework and meal schedules now stabilizes kids during deployments. These targeted actions reduce delays and keep support services continuous.
Key takeaways:
- Pull official school records and verify MIC3 rules early
- Submit EFMP updates and therapy summaries 90 days pre-move
- Apply to childcare lists by age group right after orders
- Establish portable daily routines before deployment starts
