I am currently on a VEng(Short) Contract in the army and drawing up to my 4th Year of service. I understand that I can submit my request to sign out and have to wait at least 12 months before being discharged.
My problem is this, my fiancee is American and wishes to return to the States as soon as I can sign out. However I know that if I do I will owe at least 7-8 years of service to the army (12 year contract) and that this will be in the role of some sort of reservist ie have to report at least once a year to check equipment with the possibility of getting called up for service.
Is there a way I can get out of this? I don't think that it would be very well received if I was to suddenly get called into service once I settle down in another country.
Right now I'm just looking to see what might happen before I start the process. Any advice will be happily received.
