PCS Hub

Plan your Permanent Change of Station (PCS) move with a 90/60/30-day countdown checklist — orders, housing, travel, the personally-procured move (PPM/DITY) option, and out-processing. Stay ahead of every deadline for a smoother move.

Frequently asked questions

When should I start planning a PCS?

Start as soon as you have orders — ideally 90 days out. Early scheduling of your move, housing, and travel avoids peak-season backlogs and reimbursement problems.

What is a PPM or DITY move?

A Personally Procured Move (formerly DITY) is when you move your own household goods and the government reimburses you — often letting you keep the difference if you move for less than the government’s cost.
