PCSing with dependents issues during Covid?

Anyone know why my unit would be having trouble getting orders for AIT Soldiers that live on post with their families? The Soldiers in the barracks are getting their orders and PCSing (except for a few going overseas). For some reason Soldiers that with their families aren’t able to get their orders. I asked my CoC and they said they were trying to figure it out and to stand by. Anyone know why this might be?

There is a lot more that goes on with soldiers with families: If they are going overseas, they require EFMP screenings, Passports, and other general requirements. If they are staying conus, they may require an ETP to PCS to a location with a red status for COVID.

Single soldiers are being transported to their duty stations via patriot express flights and buses.

COVID 19. Safety is paramount. Transportation requirements and risk. Just be patient.
