Steps for Transfering Your FCC Business

If you are a certified FCC Provider, you can transfer your business at your next duty station.

  • Verify FCC Availability: Contact the FCC Office at your installation to confirm that an FCC program is available.

  • Submit a Transfer Request: Notify your current FCC Office and submit a transfer request to your installation’s FCC director.

  • Coordinate with the New Garrison: The gaining FCC director will review your file and initiate the background check process.

  • Complete Required Paperwork: Submit any additional documentation required by the new installation’s CYS program.

  • Pass Home Inspections: Once you arrive, schedule necessary fire, safety, and health inspections for your new home.

  • Receive Final Certification: Upon arrival, you will receive certification to resume providing care.

Relocation Bonus for FCC Providers

FCC providers who successfully relocate their home business may be eligible for a relocation bonus of up to $1,000. This incentive is paid over 12 months upon the enrollment of at least two children.

Stay connected During Your Move

To ensure a smooth transfer, maintain communication with both your current and future FCC offices throughout the relocation process. This helps avoid delays in resuming your childcare services.

For assistance with transferring your FCC business, contact your local FCC Office or visit MilitaryChildCare.com.
