Comparación entre PFMD y adelantos de costos para traslados militares

As a military transfer, you have the choice between two devices: the PFMD (Multi-Moveers Platform) or the classic device with advance of costs. As a result, Muter Loger will explain the differences between MGFP and advance payment.

PFMD

First, the PFMD is a system put in place by the Ministry of the Armed Forces for changes of residence of military personnel under the Family Plan. The objective is to simplify the procedures related to the transfer. This arrangement allows the member to relieve himself of administrative burdens related to the move, while benefiting from a quality service and direct cost coverage by the administration. The objective is to simplify as much as possible the procedures related to mutations through simple, fast and dematerialized processes. The process is as follows:

 

  • Visit the PFMD Muter Loger website
  • Estimate your entitlement to cubing and refund cap
  • Sign up to finalize your application
  • After the call with your moving expert, receive between 3 and 6 quotes, of which minimum 2 under your financial ceiling
  • Submit the file part 1 via the Simplified Procedures site
  • The quote you have selected will be submitted for validation by CIMOB
  • Following the validation of the CIMOB, send the file part 2 via the Simplified Procedures site
  • Finally, after your move, your file will be closed

The classic scheme with advance of costs

With the classic device, you must look for moving quotes on your own and it is up to you to compete and get the quotes that match your ceiling. As a reminder, your move is covered within the limit of your refund. Beyond that, you will have to pay the difference. You will then have to fill in the compensation booklet corresponding to the nature of your case. Finally, if you choose this option, you will have to advance the moving costs.

The major differences between the two systems

To sum up, if you choose to go through the PFMD system, unlike the conventional system, we offer quotes without exceeding your ceiling, the bidding is anonymous, processes are dematerialized, you access the Simplified Procedures website online, no advance fees are required and no transaction is at your expense and finally, you benefit from a follow-up from A to Z thanks to your expert move of PFMD Muter Loger.
