That pdf is from 2009, and not exactly all-inclusive. (My code isn't even on that file.) I got TAMP by getting my SPD code changed, but whatever route works for you...

TAMP eligibility is determined by your SPD (Sep Program Designator) code on your sep orders. The Airman and Fam Readiness Ctr can translate. Have MPF get this right the first time vs amendments. Quick story: The week before I was supposed to start terminal, my kid was hospitalized all the way through my guard transition and then some. I know you're concern, mine's worth well over $1M at 10 months old-- I've read "The Book" on TRICARE. DEERS was a headache. 30 days is the window for retroactive enrollment, and it almost took me that long to get DEERS unscrewed. TRS was a good interim option for my family until I got the TAMP thing sorted out (a whole other story)... And once you figure that out, plan on falling off the face of the earth again (as far as DEERS and TRICARE are concerned) once you get back on orders in your ANG unit. Title 10 orders will turn off your TAMP (family included), if that's a factor for you. Good luck-

I went through the process, but on the Palace Chase side. Having a DOS on my SURF (via AMS) was the 'feel better' response I got from my MPF when I asked them about the process. Sounds like you're g2g!

My PC was just recently approved. 21A, 4 yr ROTC. Helps that my AFSC is on the chopping block this yr for the Force Management Program and I did grease the wheels quite a bit with AFPC (highly recommended). Shaved off only a couple months for an ANG rated slot. My PC was approved within a couple days of AFPC receiving it--I was actually floored at how fast the process was. Cheers, good luck to all!

Easy to lose radar contact out there. It's right on the edge of the AK range. I've flown over Cantwell (in a cessna) during winter and didn't see anywhere I'd care to land an airplane besides some well marked airstrips. Praying against the odds for our fellow aviator.
