Preliminary questions

good evening everyone!

I'm prior Texas guard, did some time on OLS and have been wanting the past three years to apply.

I just have a few questions before I get started.

how does USBP usually handle reservists (Im in the reserves now)

do you ever get to actually choose your duty station ( I know the northern border is restricted to senior agents)

and how is the PTO/ on off duty balance work? I heard at one point it was 5 on 4 off or something like that.

edit

Last question, after completion of the academy, does DHS/BP usually assist with family moves?
