Your sponsor's job is to help you and your family with your transfer
by providing information about the station, housing, and travel. Use
your sponsor. He/She has recently gone through the same moving process
and can make your move much easier. Don't hesitate, call or write
him/her with your questions and a prompt reply will be forthcoming. The
sponsors will normally perform the following duties:
1. Call or write a personal letter introducing him/herself.
2. Provide Information on Sector San Juan, particularly where
information is available on the Sector
San Juan website.
3. Keep you informed of the most current information available.
4. Ask if there is anything that can be done for you at this end, and
answer all questions promptly.
5. Inform the Servicing Personnel Office (SPO) as well as your new chain
of command of your arrival
date.
6. Confirm your initial lodging arrangements.
7. Meet you at the airport if you are traveling via commercial airlines.
8. You will then be assisted to your quarters and elsewhere, as required.
9. Accompany you as you check in and introduce you to the chain of
command.
10. Provide a tour of the Sector to familiarize you with all offices and
working spaces.
11. Provide a tour of base facilities.
Please keep your sponsor advised of your exact arrival time, because
transient quarters are hard to find.
