Moving to Tampa, FL next year and my current home station is in MD. Would like to know if my unit would place me in the IRR or look for a different unit for me down there. Also, would like to know if I have an option on whether I want to do one or the other.

You need to contact the Career Counselor assigned to support your current unit and request to initiate a TPU-TPU transfer. The ARCC will look for the closest vacancy available to the location where you’ll be moving to. As to having an option, just like anything else, you need to have a valid reason to request a TPU-IRR transfer.

As a former unit administrator, I must concur with the MSG, the easiest thing to do is find the career counselor, he has access to the system and can find you and slot in a unit closer to where you are moving, then you need to initiate the paper work for transfer between the units.

SPC,
Log onto HRC (https://www.hrcapps.army.mil/portal/), go to tools, vacancy search, select for your MOS, and look at Fl. This will show you all the units with vacancies and provide contact info.
As MSG (Join to see) said, if you talk with a career counselor, they can find you every unit in your new area that has your MOS.
Don't go to the IRR, it's a lengthy process to go through only to get denied b/c there are alternatives. TPU transfers are very straightforward!

Onel-1. Your responsibility to find a unit that will take you. (even tho your data must be wrong, assuming NG/USAR} 2. You signed a contract with the service you are in- why would they break the contract to move you to IRR? 3. Suggest you check out Tampa area for your service and see if they have an opening.

The unit doesn't get a say if they have a vacancy he is qualified for, his unit can just assign him. Only the loosing command needs to sign the 4651
