Frequently Asked Questions

Must I have been employed prior to moving to Ft. Hood?      Yes
Am I eligible for this program if I am already employed?     If you are employed at a wage rate lower than the job you left prior to coming to Ft. Hood you may be eligible.
Am I eligible for this program if I have been employed since being at Ft. Hood but am no longer employed?     Depending on the reason you left that employment, you may still be eligible.
Why can't I find a job that pays as well as the one I left?     Labor markets vary depending on location. Issues such as cost of living, labor availability and number and types of businesses affect area wage rates. Wages in Central Texas may be somewhat lower than in other areas because of the factors mentioned.
What can you do for me?     We can provide one-on-one job search assistance including resume and cover letter preparation, job referrals and interviewing tips. In some cases we can assist with short term training.
Can I substitute a W2 if I do not have a last pay stub?
No. A W2 will not show the end date of employment. The last pay stub is needed to show the correlation between the end of employment and the move to Ft Hood. If you do not have the last pay stub, you can substitute a letter from the employer with the end date of employment.
Am I eligible if I ETS'ed from the military to move here with my sponsor or have ETS'ed since arriving at Ft Hood?     No.
