I separated at Yokota. No problems. I have read in the separations reg about stateside processing centers that could be applicable to your situation. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Some info from ARPC's Reserve handbook. It contradicts itself, but I think if one wants to be absolutely sure to be out of the Air Force, he needs to submit a resignation. "Officers who remain in the nonparticipating IRR for at least two years, three years for separation pay recipients, will be discharged unless they are qualified and request a transfer to the Retired Reserve. "Officers who remain in the nonparticipating IRR are transferred to the Standby Reserve unless they are qualified and request a transfer to the Retired Reserve."

It will be the duty day prior, whenever that is, if you don’t have terminal leave or ptdy. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Has anyone tried for a 2 year TIG waiver for reserve retirement recently?

Don't feed the troll. I swear this is the same guy that posts fantastic tales of woe over on APC (such as 9 failed check rides, unbelievable number of DUIs, etc) and then drops the punchline "Do I have a chance?"

Someone asked me "where in Milconnect can I see if I am or am not in the IRR?" 1. Login 2. My Profile menu: Update and view my profile 3. There should be a tab labeled "personal". For myself I also have a tab labeled "MIL". So if you don't have the tab labeled MIL then you are not in the IRR (as far as DMDC/DEERS "knows" anyway). 4. If you do have a MIL tab, click on that. Then you'll look at "DOD Association." It will have a variety of titles there such as SELRES, IRR, etc.

M2: true, but this exec order does not invoke that section of law. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

What it means for the recently separated officers who did not join the SELRES/PIRR: You are most likely* in the IRR if you: 1. Volunteered for it (ie obtained a reserve commission--requires positive action to be scrolled) 2. Are required to be in the IRR by reason of unfulfilled Military Service Obligation (< 8 years total service) or because you received separation pay (which requires at least 3 yrs IRR service). 3. Otherwise have a reserve commission in the ready reserve (i.e. you have not resigned your reserve commission, nor was your commission revoked (eg by twice failure of selection for promotion), nor did you transfer to the retired reserve). Retirees are not in the ready reserve, so this order does not affect them. * I say most likely because that is what is supposed to happen. But I have witnessed on at least 2 occasions where AFPC failed to place separating people in the IRR, even though they were required to do so by law. BLAB: If you separated at the end of your UPT commitment, you are most likely not in the IRR. If you want to be sure you can check Milconnect. You'll need a DS logon, though.

ARPC said since my promo board as an ANG was held under title 10 authority that the promotion would happen on schedule regardless of component. And they were right. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Meh. He doesn’t own the song. IOW just cuz he says it’s changed does not make it so. I doubt I’ll ever sing it again, but if I do I’ll go with the actual words and not his PC version. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

UPS does differential pay for named operations. 365 day limit in your career, though.

I don’t have experience with your exact situation, but I met a promotion board soon after my transfer and rather than wait for the stated board promotion date I requested from the CC an accelerated promotion which had me pin on at public release date, after the fact due to some AFPC shenanigans when I transferred from reg to selres. I also got back pay. Since you’re already selected, you could ask your CC for the same—maybe even back dated with back pay. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Accrued leave in the new FY can put your terminal leave to greater than 60 if you want. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I did Regular to IRR to SELRES to ANG to PIRR. Easiest was SELRES to ANG. The most difficult was ANG to PIRR due to required recruiter involvement. The recruiter didn’t know what to do or how to do it. I ultimately had to go above him to the regional recruiter who did know what to do. Additionally the ANG process is longer due to a requirement to get a conditional release from the chain all the way to TAG, which shouldn’t be a big deal, but took a lot of prodding.

The opposite is true. ACIP and bonus should be paid at a monthly/yearly rate for part timers the same as active duty. Both have the exact same requirements to be ready to fly. Also for all the complaints about AD pay, the same goes for drill pay: it’s not enough for the skills brought and already invested. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Moose: Tricare For Life is a medicare supplement which kicks in when you get Medicare at age 65. Tricare Prime or Select prior to age 65: it is a benefit but it’s not huge. The premium for health insurance from my employer is $100 per mo. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

But but I was PTWOB! or I was a SOAR IP! therefore due to my superior cadet status I should skip UPT!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

AFAIK any reference to reserve obligation term date is interchangeable with the term MSO (mil svc obligation) which is 8 yrs total service which can be any combination of active and reserve. So in your case you take the date you were initially put into active service and add 8 yrs. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Pro tip: Get a VA disability rating if you have anything to claim and you’ll start paying down your debt immediately and be done with it well prior to receiving reserve retirement pay. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
