<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Get documentation, the more &quot;official&quot; the better of everything that is going on with your situation. You will need assistance from every level of your chain of command, so begin there. <br />I&#39;ve been out of the military far too long to offer much more than that.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Your options are extremely limited until your wife is eligible for a visa.<br />Compassionate reassignment based on the medical care needs of a dependent are based on where those services can be provided. If they can be provided where you are stationed now, there would be no compassionate reassignment.<br /><br />You should also talk to your chain of command now about getting priority for on post housing.<br />And you also need to consider that when you do move CONUS, you are moving her 5000 miles away from her family, that will be another impact you&#39;ll both need to deal with.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>not to be too nosey but why is your wife not eligible to come to the US? My son got his fiancé in on a 90 day visa with no problems. I would think that getting a wife in would be easier than a fiancé

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Soldiers may be considered for a compassionate action when they have extreme Family problems. The two types of Compassionate Requests are when personal problems are:<br /><br />1. Temporary (resolvable within one year)<br /><br />2. Not expected to be solved in one year<br /><br />A compassionate action may be a request for reassignment, deletion, deferment or permissive attachment based on the soldier&#39;s circumstances.<br /><br />Criteria and supporting documentation for Compassionate Actions are outlined in AR 614-200 Chapter 5.<br /><br />Read the AR - go to page 41. <br /><br />5–12.

A signed statement from the attending physician giving the specific medical diagnosis, prognosis of illness, and treatment plan. The statement will include date of onset, past and anticipated periods of hospitalization, period of convalescence, and anticipated life expectancy for terminal cases. The statement will list any other factors that establish the Soldier&#39;s presence as having a bearing on the medical condition. For cases involving reassignment from OCONUS location where medical care for Family members is not available, include documentation from appropriate medical authorities stating that fact (see para 5–15g).<br />b.

Rape is listed as something you can submit for. But realize that compassionate reassignments are only good for a year. <br /><br />I did one for my daughter&#39;s medical problems; however, luckily they had a slot for me so I stayed 3 years and then another 10 months on a medical stabilization.<br /><br />Oh and yes documentation as specific as possible from medical, etc, is necessary.
