Well that depends on your "Separation" code. Mine was FCN because I volunteered to get out under the force shaping board, they would move me either to my home of record or place of entry to active duty. They will move you that far, or anyplace in-between, as long as it's not further that one of those two. Now, that being said, because I "force shaped" I was told they would move me anywhere in the world, didn't press the test on that one, I moved a short 14 hour drive away, only halfway to my home of record. If you were RIF'd (I think I remember reading that) I would think your benefits will be the same or better than mine, oh by the way, you get your special "check" a day or two after your official separation date, without taxes taken out.
