How many days do command-sponsored dependents have to relocate with a SM after a PCS move?

My report date to Korea was 11/10/2021. My parents are command sponsored but both of my sister is getting married so they have to stay in California a bit more. But unfortunately my mom is a stroke victim from 2019 and was sent to ER 3-days ago and It might them a bit more time before they can come to korea.

How long can they be separated from me? is there any regulation that states this?

Housing is giving me a mad problem and refuses to give housing for me, wife, and 15-month old baby before they see my parents flight Itinerary.

SFC Private RallyPoint Member or MSG Private RallyPoint Member can probably provide some better clarity

They can be separated as long as forever. You need to make that election in your levy brief. It's very, very unlikely that your mom will pass EFMP and gain command sponsorship after being laid up from a stroke. You'll need to take your mother off your command sponsorship orders

From what I was told, if your sisters were command sponsored, as soon as they are married, they lose their command sponsorship and can no longer be claimed as dependents
