SSG Private RallyPoint Member 4330021 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>So, for right now, my husband and son are PCSing with me to Hawaii and they are on my orders but at some point my step kids will be coming with us full time. How do I get them over to Hawaii or on my orders when that time comes? Do I have to make them my dependents and then they come over? Do we pay out of pocket to fly them over? Will housing accommodate us and give us bigger housing? Any insight would be helpful as I’ve never done this before. I’ve only PCD’d with my son. 2019-01-30T21:06:27-05:00 SSG Private RallyPoint Member 4330021

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>One of my soldiers had something similar... He married his gf which at the time had a child that was not his. His wife stayed home until he legally adopted his stepchild. Base housing can only accommodate for the dependents that are on DEERS... I’m not sure about over in Hawaii SSg, but that’s how it goes over here in Ft Carson

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Things change from time to time and it’s been a while for me. Therefore I suggest consultimg with your installation transportation and JAG.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>They have to be added to your DEERS. In order to do that they will have to be your dependents and your husband will need to have custody of them. Once they are on your DEERS you have to get them EFMP screenings and then command sponsorship, then they can receive their own travel orders.<br />As for housing, it&#39;s whatever the local policy is where you&#39;re going.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>DEERS rules all.
