USAF Members Conditional Release

ssgt2wo · February 8, 2014

Hello All, I've been lurking on the site for a while. I'm putting together a packet to meet the board this summer. Regarding the conditional release I'm not sure what date to select for the separation date. Please advise.

Just put six month past the board date. That's just a formality, to include a date. If it's approved, they will only give you six month past the date they approved it anyways.

Thanks

Finally received my conditional release letter today. Next task is the SIFT at Ft Sam on 12 May.

^^^what he said.

Let us know how you did. I should be hearing back from my recruiter today about scheduling mine. I feel like I'm reciting aviation knowledge in my sleep. Brain is fried.

Thanks. Will do.

Scored a 52 today. Is anyone down in the San Antonio area?

Do you have to do a conditional release on vMPF? My recruiter said all I needed was the form signed by the first O-6 in my chain.

I went through AFPC per the USAREC website.

My apologies, I know I'm resurrecting an old thread here. When you went through vMPF for your conditional release, did you upload both a DD 368 and the LOI from USAREC? If so, was your 368 already signed by your commander or did that happen once it made its way through vMPF?

I had mine kicked back because I didn't attach documentation. All they requested was the dd368, with recruiter and commander signatures. After getting that and uploading now my package is up at the functional for manning approval

I appreciate the info. I figured I'd ask since AFPC isn't always clear about what they want. Thanks!

Sorry to bump this again, but it looks like it took the OP around 2 and a half months to get the conditional release processed by AFPC. Anyone else have experience with how long they took? I'm going to submit my conditional release app on vMPF this week and am wondering if I have any chance to get it back before the 15 May Board packet deadline.

Lmannino · February 12, 2015

You should have time... Attach your dd form signed by your recruiter and commander. I stayed ontop of my commander and even with mine getting kicked back, it was completely done in 21 days.

And mine had to goto the functional manager because I'm a tacp and I still had 5 years left on my contract

AndrewD · February 13, 2015

It's going to be close. I think AFPC has up to eight weeks to process the release but mine only took about six. Hopefully you have more luck than I did.

chairforce14 · February 13, 2015

Good to know. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Thanks for the help!

Who signed your 368s? Blue2greenWOFT, I saw that your recruiter said the first 0-6 in your chain. My local Army recruiter said the first 0-5 in my chain. Lmannino, AndrewD, and chairforce14, who signed yours?

AndrewD · February 26, 2015

My 368 was signed by my Commander (0-5) and then uploaded to AFPC. It's digitally routed to your Squadron and Wing Commander for recommendation and then I believe it goes to an O-7 at AFPC for approval.

It goes to your squadron commander, or commander on g-series orders. Most the time this will be an 0-5 but could even be an 0-4 occasionally.

After that it goes to the designated authority at your base mpf office. Normally designated down to a captain or major. Then from their it goes to afpc. Dependent on your contract remaining time it might have to goto your career manager prior to getting the release approved

I'm in a non-standard organization (no squadron, group, or wing) with a Deputy Chief (O-5) and a Director (O-6). I ended up sending it to the Director just to be sure. I have just under 3 years left on my contract and I'm overseas, so it'll probably go to my career field manager. I called my MAJCOM functional manager and my career field manager at the Pentagon last week to give them a heads-up. They seemed supportive and said they'd look for the package so hopefully it floats through easily.
