Heres my situation, my fiance and I are going to be married this saturday. And we are going to file for joint domicile (MACP) I have referenced it online but havent found much clarification. I was wondering if there is anyone out there that has dealt with this before whether it was with one of your soldiers, or a personal action. I would appreciate advise and comments.

You can reference AR 614-200, Chapter 5, Section IV, Married Army Couples Program.

This covers everything you'll need to know.

Good luck with that. The MACP has failed me miserably but, GOD willing it will work for you.

My wife and I have been enrolled for about 5 years and we have been at duty stations within 50 mile range and the branch managers try to work with our MOS. If you have a limited MOS (Duty station restricted), then it might become harder to be stationed together, but I am a 92Y and my wife a 42L, so we can go anywhere the army needs logistics and admin. Good luck to you and it is going to be a rough road if you're separated. Deployments to different locations makes it hard.

I'm enrolled in MACP and it has been great for me, but I also have a smaller branch that worked with me. When I got married, my wife was on orders to bragg and i was on orders to benning. I was able to get my orders recended (sp?) and new orders to bragg within a couple of weeks.

I'm going to be enlisting next fall after my husband gets back from Cuba. I am wondering how MACP will work for us. He is a 31E and I am going to be going in as a 42A. My recruiter told me that if he gets orders, I will more than likely be going with him because of being in human resources, but if I get orders to go where the isn't a facility, then he might have to get special orders.

I was told by my Career Counselor that since I'm in with more TIS / TIG that she will follow me to whatever post that I go? Can we get some more information on this?

TIS/TIG should not necessarily be a determining factor on who follows who--unless one is a Sr. NCO where slots tend to diminish based on MOS. It is typically based mainly on the MOS; meaning if, for example, you hold 11B and your spouse has a Signal MOS, you are NOT going to be able to go everywhere that your spouse can go. (An 11B isn't going to get Gordon) But a Signal MOS can pretty much go anywhere. Other factors can be TOS(Time on Station), Stop Loss/Stop Move, etc. But I really cannot see how one's Time in Service/Grade has anything bearing.
