So I just got back from a 12 month deployment and did a PC's and the new unit is deploying soon and has me listed as going... How does dwell time work?

SGT Austin Gillum,
Your dwell time is the same length of your last deployment. If you were deployed for nine months, you have nine months dwell.
Also, keep asking questions, don’t let cranky retired folks tell you otherwise. If they don’t have an answer they are better not commenting.

It is a unit that has dwell time and while commands may chose to assist people their is no requirement to do so. I deployed in 05 and was back for eight months before going for 15. I had done an inner post transfer so the new unit need my position to go.

I came back from a 16 month deployment in late April 08 and PCSed to Hawaii in late June 08 and PCSed again in June 09 (USASMA). This was when it was supposed to be 90 days dwell time after a deployment. It's all about what Big Army wants you to do. You will be able to get the current Regs for dwell time from your S1. Good luck.
