Ok, so i have been pulling my hair out trying to plan this stupid move to bethesda, maryland. Which many of you have been so supportive and helpful, thank you again. But now i found out that the navy doesn't even think we are married. some over sight or something. they have my husband listed as single and now they wont help move anything. and my husband seems to act like there is nothing he can do about it. so what do i do? who do i call? i just feel like giving up on everything right now. i knew that being married to a man in the navy would be hard but this is just too much.

Im new to navy myself, but I would think he would be able to show the marriage certificate and get his status changed, and show that it was someone fault down the line.
you would think it would be that simple. but he has a thousand and one excuses on why he cant do anything. seriously im starting to wonder if he wants to married at all.

Your husband needs to get off his butt and go to PSD and get it updated!  There is nothing you can do if the USN doesn't see you as married, HE needs to do it and NOW!  If he can't get off his butt and do that simple little thing (yes it really isn't that hard) than ......

 

If the USN doesn't see you as married, you have no medical insurance, he hasn't been getting housing pay, the USN will not pay to move you, really I can go on and on with all the things you aren't getting. 

 

The orders he has now will be single orders, which means the USN will not pay to move your stuff and also he can't get on the housing list (if there is one out there).

 

 

Def just a matter of getting up and going to the right office and getting it taken care of. Hubby discovered his rank was listed wrong when he got to Aschool and all he had to do to get it fixed was take in a piece of paper that said he was being promoted and turn a copy of it into PSD. So if something official like that is simple, that should be too. Its not like they look at him and so no, your not married, your lying... and ignore him
Thank you! that is what i have been saying!  we only have four weeks before i have to move me and the kids across the country to a place where i don't know anything or anyone and he acts like it is no big deal. he is more concerned with finding work there then getting us a home. i don't mind working. done it most of my life, but to me getting a home is a little more important. now i can't do anything because im considered a big nothing to the navy!
