    Don't worry, the move of address to Florida is 100% legal and you can still keep your place in NH.

    Anyone know if you can get multiple WIOA grants?

    Well. I actually managed to get a second WIOA grant—the state boss was receptive to my story, I guess. After having to wait to start school, driving 3 hours a day round trip to school, and having tests screwed up because of covid scares and staffing issues (and a 90 degree failure from me) I finally managed to get a test date, take the test, and pass.

    Now I need a job. The lack of work history because of being semi retired is still there as a problem, but I’m hoping that actually having the license in hand will help a little.

    I guess I’ll try the starter types again, but I was hoping @Chinatown might have some suggestions now that I have the license. Still living in NH, but getting back isn’t that important. CFI said they’d take me with a license, but the pay scale is still kinda low even for a bare rookie.
    Thanks.
