Questions for anyone who has done an ART to AGR conversion. I am currently an ART and my position is converting to AGR and I am accepting that conversion to become an AGR. -What rights/protections under USERRA do you have? -What happens to any leave you have accumulated on the GS side (LA, LM, LY, LS) -Do you still get 120 hrs of military leave every year? -Are you still eligible for FEHB, if you want to pay? -What happens to the money you put into FERS? Depending on who I ask, I get different answers. On one hand, I am "being called to active duty", so I understand that process and how the above questions get answered in that context. CPO seems to think that I am just like ever yother ART that is being called to active duty. But I have been told by others have told me that since my ART job is going away, by way of conversion, I don't get any USERRA protection/rights and don't get any of the benefits that I would get if say, I would leave my ART job to take a job at the Pentagon as an AGR, for example (ART job still exists in that case). Just looking for any insight from someone who has done this before. Everyone is trying to be helpful by answering these questions that I have but there are a lot of WOMs and I am not getting much help from CPO/AFPC (every time I ask , they just send me a link...to a website that I have already read and has generated the questions that I am asking.)
