What's New in Boris

1.4.7

August 11, 2026

We went back through the checklist and fixed what was wrong Some of it was about money. Post Allowance and overseas COLA are not taxable, and the app said they were. If you planned around those numbers, plan again. Passport waits were listed at up to 12 weeks. They are 4 to 6 weeks, or 2 to 3 expedited. And most contractors do not qualify for the no-fee official passport, which we had wrong in the other direction. DEERS and ID cards are not handled at RAPCON. It is the RAPIDS ID Cards Office, Bldg 2106 Room 117, and it is closed Wednesday mornings. EFMP screening does not block your orders. If a family member does not clear, what gets denied is their command-sponsored travel, and you still have options. We also fixed locations showing up for the wrong service branch, and map pins that would not open. Same Boris underneath: no account, no email, no ads. Just the local know-how you actually use.

Most Helpful App for PCSing!!

This app has been a game changer in our move here to Germany! Not only does it give you a comprehensive guide to all the PCSing processes it is user friendly and gives you easy to follow check lists! It also has been a great resource to for finding places to eat, stay and visit around the KMC area. It’s not easy being in another country trying to set up a new home base, but Boris was with us every step of the way and made it feel manageable!!

Thank you, this made my week. “Manageable” is the exact word I was hoping for when I started building this, so reading it back from someone actually in the middle of a move means a lot. Welcome to the KMC, and good luck with the rest of the setup. Cris

Incredible Resource

This app is such an incredible resource for people PCSing in and out of Germany. I also love the ‘Settled’ version, which provides valuable information and guidance for people living in the area. Looking for something fun to do? Looking for a new restaurant to try? Looking for information on how to recycle? This app has that and so much more! Enjoy!
