I've been wanting to find the answers but nobody seems to know about this type of situation. How soon can you receive a new PCS assignment after a 12 month deployment if the dwell time is waived? How long does it take to pcs from conus to oconus? and I would have about 14 months left before I ETS.

If you have 14 months until you ETS, you are not eligible to be assigned overseas.

That's too vague, you can receive an assignment any time, even in the middle of your deployment. There's just too many variables to make wild guesses, you're better off telling us what you're situation is and what you want.

Unless you get orders to Korea (and even that is HIGHLY unlikely), you will not receive orders to PCS to an overseas assignment with only 14 months left in the Army. Even if you were put on orders for an overseas assignment with that little time left, you would be told that you'd have to extend or reenlist to meet the assignment obligation.
