my wife and I are dual military and apart of MACP. my wife was put on assignment to Korea and was given an advanced assignment to fort hood.she recently left to Korea and is in processing. once she gets done in processing how long will it take for us to get an assignment for fort hood? also, her orders due state that she does have an advanced assignment for fort hood. she just has to re-enlist in December so that she has enough time in her contract to pcs there. PM me if there are any questions or for whatever other reason. and the reason I ask how long it takes is cause I'm hoping I come down on orders for fort hood before the next upcoming rotation next year. if I get orders for the next rotation then my wife's time in Korea will overlap with me being deployed elsewhere and we will be separated for 21 months on top of our 2 kids being separated from us.

You do understand that MACP will try very hard to get you co-assigned If you check with your brach/MACP yet?, but it is not locked in stone. Assignment and orders are hand in hand- you get notified of assignment and then the orders follow. Hvae you checked with your branch/MACP yet?

Assignment instructions are what you come down on. Orders are what you physically hold in your hands.
The assignment process starts by receiving Assignment Instructions and ends with you having orders in your possession

Your assignment report date will most likely coincide with your spouse's report date to Hood. That will be 13 months after her report date to Korea. Unless your unit has placed a stabilization AEA code on you for the Korea rotation, then it will be after that.

I just want to much sure you and your spouse understands, an advance assignment is not guaranteed. Even after your wife inprocess in Korea, she still won’t receive her next assignment instructions until 6-8 months from now.
