I hope it all works out, do let us know how it went.
So he put in for a move not knowing you were on his orders? Yikes. Please help other young ladies wondering about when to marry by telling them your story (when you're no longer stressed about it). The information is out there, we just have to get it to the engaged couples!

Yeah at first we figured they wouldn't move me, back when we were talking about me moving in December. But then when they forced me to move early, they said they would be paying so we got excited. Then they changed their minds at the last minute. My husband had to go to Navy Marine Corps Relief for a loan and put in a request chit for advance pay just to get enough money to move me down there! I am suppose to leave Friday and we don't even know if the money will be in on time! I know it will all work out, it usually does, it is just very stressful in the meantime!

All your husband has to do is go to Tricare to fix your medical. Also they can't "take" your money away from you.
Sounds like your husband needs to go to PSD to get that fixed.

They cut the BAH because the pay in CT is almost double that of GA and they say they won't pay for BAH in CT. So they didn't cut his pay, they just cut our BAH. My husband has been talking to PSD and they are the ones telling him all this.

Uggg as if the situation wasn't already bad enough, it just got worse!!! So my mom and I went to enterprise to reserve the minivan. We wanted to rent it in her name with her as the driver, but I would pay for it. Well apparently they won't do that! The purchase has to be made in the name of whoever the vehicle is being rented to, but my mom doesn't have a debit or credit card! So now we are screwed, no way to get a rental! I have no idea what I am going to do now. The rental company is trying to get a hold of their higher ups, and I am trying to get a hold of the Chiefs to see if they can talk to them but I have no idea what else to do! I am freaking out, I have to leave Friday but I have no way to get there now! Uggg I hate how everything has to be so complicated!
