BONE WSO Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 FYI, this may be common knowledge but it wasn't for me. When I got VSP approved, the A1C at the MPF sent me the email verifying it and it said, in all caps, "Since you are separating voluntarily you are not entitled to 20 days PTDY." This is not true. If you look at the FAQs on mypers it clearly states that we do get the 20 days. I brought it to her and she said "Oh yeah, you do get the 20 days, sorry." I also talked to Airman and Family Readiness Center and they confirmed that even though VSP says we are not entitled to TAMP, if you join a Reserve Unit as a drilling reservist you will get 180 days of active duty healthcare.

Really? So we get 20 days of job hunting if approved for VSP? I'm scheduled for a 737-Type rating/ATP course in June. Would love to use PTDY instead of taking Leave.

Pirot Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) @FLY6584 take a look at permissive tdy rule 15. I have heard people being approved for that. Also, according to a c17 guy who is outprocessing under vsp, he can only take 60 days of terminal, so he's burning through some leave now instead of being able to take it in one big chunk.

chizz Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 FLY, where are you doing your type? Im in vegas doing it right now. They just updated all the guidance and you def. get the 20 days PTDY. Also, if you have 70 days of leave then thats when you start your terminal, how can they tell you you cant take it all at once?? Makes no sense. And instead of burning it all right now, just sell some. About 50 days gets you around $9k as a Major Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a buddy go through who had nothing, but good things to say about it. Classes of 4 people... two teams of two so that should be nice also. I only have about 14 days of leave so that's not really an issue for me. I have never hesitated to take a vacation when I needed it and I most certainly needed it a lot while on AD. @FLY6584 take a look at permissive tdy rule 15.

Yeah my partner that I'm going through training with got approved for that under rule 15, but he's a LtCol staff guy right now so his Commander wasn't worried about a bunch of guys in a flying squadron putting in for it if he approved it for him. The rule can be interpreted both ways. I can see how a Commander would approve it and I could see how a Commander wouldn't approve it. I'm waiting to see what happens with the VSP before I ask my Commander. Worse comes to worse I'll just use my leave which will suck, but it'll be nice to have that box checked.

Azimuth Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) 3pox1 and 4 year group... Enlisted VSP has nothing to do with Officer VSP, which applies to the majority of folks here. Edited May 9, 2014 by Azimuth 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BamaC-21 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Enlisted VSP has nothing to do with Officer VSP, which applies to the majority of folks here. I think he's trying to say congrats on VSP, but for some reason it came out with a hint of douchebag.

I just did the CPT program in April and was very happy. It's not really fun, but it's not really difficult either. You're busy for 10 days straight, but its definitely worth it in the end. Plus, if you use VA, they somehow know exactly how to do the paperwork such that it gets approved really quickly. I finished on Apr 11, and I got my VA refund check from CPT on 5 May.

MooseAg03 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 So it's Friday, anyone have odds on whether we hear anything at all today? "We find it's always better to fire people on a Friday.

nsplayr Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) So the way I read it you only are eligible for the 20 days of PTDY if you're VSPing or retiring, not just regular-guy separating...that check? Also never realized you could get up to 7 days PTDY to interview for a Guard/Reserve job. Oh well...the more you know! All the PC hopefuls can put that in their hip pocket if they didn't know already...AFI 36-3003 table 7 rule 19.
