My question: what&#39;s the longest he could be deployed? Is it likely he will be sent home with at least 3 months left in his contract to transition?<br />He was scheduled for BLC and so it came as a shock when he was scheduled to deploy and we are still adjusting. It would be easier if there was a tentative timeline of how long he&#39;ll be gone.<br />Thank you so much for any help.

He could be there 180 days. If he fully intends on getting out, then he shouldn&#39;t be where ever he is for the whole 10 months since he is gonna need about 30 (perhaps a little less) days to start clearing out of the Army. He will probably need the full 30 and maybe a little more if he hasn&#39;t completed his SFL-TAP courses/appointments yet.

Unless they freeze transfers or institute a stop-loss, they&#39;ll get him home before ETS.

The Army is required to bring him back at least 90 days for ETS. He has had 7-8 months where he could have started SFLTAP, so that&#39;s on him for not doing it yet. If he wants he can extend another year when he returns if he needs more time to adequately prepare.

Seems hes not too serious about getting out anyway since he hasn&#39;t done any of the SFLTAP.
