Has anyone received any updates on IFT dates?
I'm sure they will post when they get first word, but I, too, am checking twice a day, as not knowing how to plan my life is a bigger wrinkle to my day-to-day than I thought it was going to be [emoji28]

    37th! There've been some not too chill times like early wakeups and late days, but I have genuinely enjoyed every single moment of it and even sitting in a class where I'm about to fall asleep and bor

Nothing from IFT.  Received a RIP today for MFS on 14 March.

Did you reply to them saying you wear contacts or something?

I let them know I do not wear contacts, but the response we geared towards my DEROS.

I feel this. I almost replied to the contact lens email just to make sure they weren’t waiting on my response even though they said positive responses only.  
 

After I get medically cleared they can take as long as they need on everything else. I just want that warm and fuzzy that I don’t have some random eye issue that was missed.

Does the EFMP trick still work?

That trick only works with orders and sadly they're not loading orders till closer to the end of next month.  We are looking at just MFS and IFT which won't show up anywhere except the CDB and SURF since they are just TDYs.

Ugghhhh. Another day of this staring back at me menacingly.

Saw this on my CDB, but haven't received any emails. Everything I found related to this is the MFS, which is the last 3 letters of the code, but the 29th is a Thursday...don't these things happen on Mondays? Has anyone else seen this look like this? Also, this just dropped this evening and is 7 days away...wtf man [emoji58]20240220_232426.jpg

Since we have already had the majority of our exam completed at a flight medicine clinic, we only have to complete a few eye exams, measurements, and a computer based neurological exam. At least that is what I’ve read so far.

Have you checked your SURF on AMS for projected trainings? Mine updates on Wednesday’s not sure if everyone’s does or if it’s a last name thing. But it had 3 lines that maybe can help you build some info

Double tap on this. My IFT was loaded into my CDB for me to see. I went to my CSS and they pulled my record and was able to see my MFS and UPT dates that were hidden. My SURF was clean though. Apparently it updated at midnight and the dates were loaded at 1 am. Also I got my assignment RIP from the CC this morning as well. See you all in Columbus!

Nice!  Congrats! Do you have a RNLTD to Columbus?  I don’t have a RIP yet… just curious as to what the timelines are looking like.

EFMP trick works btw! Slotted for Vance atm!

Stupid question, is the EFMP trick simply clicking the "Apply to Change or Cancel" button and you see the "MiPDS" message? I know a few years back, accessing efmp looked quite different

Affirm!  If you don’t have an assignment loaded it will show something along the lines of “MilPDS does not reflect you have an assignment…”If you have an assignment, I think you can click through a few pages and it will show you the base you are going to.

EFMP trick worked! Columbus, AFB. Looks like per my CDB, projected training starts in June 2024 and ends Feb 2025. (I've already completed DOSS) Which is quite a bit shorter than I anticipated? Maybe they're still working the numbers or maybe UPT is taking some more shortcuts? Who knows. 

Question, if projected training start date is June 27th, does that mean PCS 30 days before? So potentially May?

Received an MFS RIP for 29 Feb (can't attend due to being on OCONUS leave though) this morning. Also received PCS RIP for Sheppard for 8 July. Wayyyy sooner than I had expected for an ENJJPT slot but very excited! Probably expecting an August-ish class start date from what I've been hearing from others that are there.

I don’t have that button 🤔 

Should be the highlighted button. VMPF > Assignments tab > Exceptional Family Member Program Application > Then the picture below. Once you get past the 3rd page or so, it'll showcase your base and then on the left hand side, click "Remove my EFMP Application."
