Permanent Change of Station (PCS) moves are governed by the JFTR, Chapter 5. If you are ordered to a duty station outside 50 miles of your HOR or previous duty station, you may be entitled to a PCS move. More than one PCS move in a fiscal year is not authorized, but exceptions are handled on a case-by-case basis (i.e., PCS to new duty station and then PCS to school).
