Can an IST be denied in the national guard if the spouse has a PCS?

Some details- I’m in the N.C. national guard, we have a deployment date set for next September. My husband is currently in Oklahoma at new duty station. I’m not sure of the regulations regarding an IST. Provided all of my criteria are met for an IST, is the state still able to deny it?

Yes, the state can still deny it. Especially if your MOS is in need for the mission. If you want to dig further since you are not sure of the regulation, look in NGR 600-200

I used to be in the North Carolina National Guard. I have never seen an IST denied. Although I have seen people lose bonuses because they change States. The North Carolina National Guard has an IST coordinator in Raleigh. but if your spouse is active duty military then you should be able to go with them.

Do you currently live in Oklahoma? If so, that changes the situation.
