If you've cleared properly, it shouldn't work...

I would say no, to be sure I would check with your S-1 but I am pretty sure they will be shutting it down.

I don't know the answer, SGT Private RallyPoint Member, but I like your profile pic.

No. When you ETS, the S-1 section shuts it down.

God, I hope not. Smells like a recipe for disaster.

SGT Private RallyPoint Member No, finance will explain to you the process of getting whatever money you are owed. Also, you will use your nearest JPPSO for transportation of your things, not the nearest base transportation office.

No. Typically they'll cut that up right before you get out to ensure you don't use it.

What's a ETS award?

Why would you want to? That's a risk I definitely wouldn't want. I know for a fact that the day I turn in my retirement paperwork I will be cutting up my GOVCC

When you ETS, one of your stops is your Battalion S-8. Your S-8 will check to see if you have an open GTCC account open and will require that you close your account and turn in your card before they sign your paper. When you turn in your GTCC, they **should** cut it or shred it in front of you.

If you're asking if you can use it through the process of ETSing, you shouldn't. There shouldn't be anything that's needed when ETSing. GTCCs are for official travel expenses between duty stations only.
