VA (Department of Veterans Affairs)
The United States has the most comprehensive system of assistance for veterans of any nation in the world. This benefits system traces its roots back to 1636, when the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony were at war with the Pequot Indians. The Pilgrims passed a law which stated that disabled soldiers would be supported by the colony. The establishment of the Veterans Administration came in 1930 when Congress authorized the President to "consolidate and coordinate Government activities affecting war veterans."
This forum also includes the Veterans Health Administration (VHA).

I am trying to move back to the west coast from the east coast due to hardship. There are jobs available in the west coast with my same job series classification and same GS level. Has anyone heard of a hardship transfer in the federal government and if so how is that possible? Due to the way the job market is now I would hate to quit my job and make the move. I have too many debts to do that but I need to get back. Any suggestions would truly be appreciated! I am presently Dod and the job would be with VA.

You can do hardship transfers in the VA, check out the links provided but go to your supervisor and/or HR and tell them you would like to start the process of a hardship transfer.
