Brookfield Relocation Services: Canadian Armed Forces Relocation Program
Customized Planning Sessions
CAF Members can book a 30-minute planning session, to discuss their particular situation with a BGRS Agent. This can include a tour of the Member Secure Website, assisting in clarifying sections in the CAF Relocation Directive, reviewing expense claims, etc. To promptly secure a first planning session during the Active Posting Season (APS), CAF members need to book the session immediately after completing their Preliminary Relocation Assessment (PRA). The BGRS system prioritizes first planning session requests for the next 5 business days of the PRA being completed. Requesting a first session on day 4 after completing the PRA significantly reduces the priority element, as only 1 business day is left in the priority structure. All subsequent requests for a planning session are based on availability.
