Spouse preference for Appropriated Fund Positions is afforded
only through the Department of Defense Priority Placement Program. In
order to be eligible, the spouse must be already serving on an expected
appointment overseas or on a career or career-conditional appointment at the
time the PCS orders are issued. The spouse must be placed on leave
without pay (lwop) or be separated from their appointment due to PCS in order to
receive spouse preference priority placement
consideration. Registration for departing spouses may be accomplished
30 days prior to sponsor's reporting date at the new duty
location. An appointment for registration may be obtained by calling
the Civilian Personnel Office at (915) 568-6232.
