Relocation Planning Call

To begin relocation planning with reimbursement, you must first obtain approval from NHSC by submitting a relocation request in your My BHW Portal at least 21 business days in advance, or as soon as you upload your NHSC Offer & Acceptance Employment Form to begin the relocation process.

You are strongly encouraged to schedule your relocation appointment as early as possible before your planned move date. At least 21 business days are required to properly plan your move.

This time is needed to obtain estimates, review options, and secure moving services. Delays may impact your relocation timeline and available options.

During your scheduled Relocation appointment, your assigned Travel Coordinator will contact you by phone to review the terms of your NHSC Relocation approval and assist with planning your move. A critical component of this call is the telephonic inventory of the household goods that will be relocated.

Following the appointment, the Travel Coordinator will document your inventory and relocation requirements and determine the most appropriate moving companies from which to request estimates.

  • For participants approved under the Federal Funded option, the Travel Coordinator will manage the estimate process and select the moving company offering the lowest cost that meets all relocation requirements.
  • For participants with a conditional approval for a Federal Funded move or completing a Self-Move, the Travel Coordinator will send you a summary documentation and provide a link with approved movers from which you must obtain estimates, and you will coordinate directly.
