Officers and airmen can now use the Web to list as many as eight preferred future duty stations in the continental U.S. (CONUS). Requests submitted by users of the new Expanded Permissive Assignment program will be sent directly to their commander, then to the staff that handles permanent change of station (PCS) assignments, and then back to the senders. They will be notified if confirmation, approval, or disapproval of their requests via e-mail. Applicants will no longer have to leave their work stations make PCS requests.More information is available at http://ask.afpc.randolph.af.mil (search for "expanded permissive"), or by calling the Air Force Contact Center at (800) 616-3775.
