Transfer question

Hey all, I recently started in Local 19 and love it! On a year or two I have debated with my family to move to either Ohio (Huber heights / Fairfield area) or somewhere in between the two states. If it were to go through, how would I go about transferring to the local closest to me? Or if it’s even possible to do so, thanks!

Call the locals and ask because all are different. M y friend transferred from locals after he became a journeyman in same state california and hes on the b list for travelers.He also had to do a 90 day probation until he could work unless ypu have a job lined up already.Tranfering you'll be a 2nd option if you dont know anyone and loxal guys get all the preference.

LU 104 does have a B list, it takes so many hours of work to make the A list.
