Coastal Preference and a Relationship

[boredinto]

Hi All

I have trolled the forums for an answer to this question, but havent found anything specific enough for me to use, so Ill leave it in your hands...

I am currently in a relationship with someone who is on their QL3s, I have a west coast posting, they are submitting their coast preferences and have requested the west also, however due to the make up of the course it appears likely that she will be posted east (Her stuff is in Queens storage out east also).  Are there any steps we can take to increase the chances that she will be posted west?  We have been together for 8 months, and have recently moved in together. 

Your assistance/advice is greatly appreciated!

Common-law or married are the only relationships the CF recognizes and even then you can be posted apart.  And no, I don't advise you to marry someone you've known for 8 months, just to increase your chances of being posted together.

She needs to talk to her career manager.  Have you considered going east?  The Maritimes are, after all, God's country.

It does make sense. Clearly Satan would dislike snow, which is why if the east coast is God's country, they're the ones that get it.

Conversely, God would want to have a nice place to hang and get the other end of the world used to Hell being actually frozen over.

Hey friend, I have a very similar situation.

My only advice is that on the sheet where she makes her preference known there is a comment box and to detail why she wants the coast she wants.

Also, consider going east.

That's all I got brother, best of luck

Unfortunately, as you both knew upon joining the CF, you get posted where you're needed.

The only options that I am aware of is to request the same Coast, and either you get it, or you don't.
