buscruncher22 Posted March 28, 2022 Posted March 28, 2022 Timeline update for non-prior at a guard fighter unit: AFOQT/TBAS: June 2020 Board: November 2020 Hired: November 2020 MEPS: January 2021 Swear in/Gaining: October 2021 IFC1: March 2022 IFC1 Approved: ?? Sent to NGB: ?? NGB Approved: ?? OTS: ?? UPT: ?? Been almost 1.5ish years since getting hired off the street - seems like 2+ to UPT is the new norm with how long the pipeline and process is taking. Totally understand patience is key here with COVID backups and what not.. anyone else experiencing something similar?
UPTapplicant96 Posted March 29, 2022 Posted March 29, 2022 15 hours ago, buscruncher22 said: MEPS: January 2021 Swear in/Gaining: October 2021 From what I've seen in the last 2 years of being on the circuit, ~12 months from hire to OTS is a reasonable expectation for non-priors. Why did it take ~10 months to be gained after finishing MEPS? Why did it take ~6 months to get an FC1 date after being gained? Maybe there were hiccups in your MEPS physical and/or getting an FC1 date. If so, I would understand why your timeline is longer than normal. But if not, I would ask the question, are you being to patient with your recruiter? Assuming you passed your FC1, at least you made it this far regardless of how long it took. 1

NGB A1 typically sends a courtesy copy of the approval to A3 as a heads up, but your unit and/or local training shop needs to submit the request to A3 1
LAW428 Posted May 5, 2022 Posted May 5, 2022 Yes, my base training sent my approval letter to the NGB. She said it also gets sent internally at the NGB as well. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app 1

Scroll up a few posts and you'll see my edited timeline with my orders dates included. NGB approval to OTS dates was about two months, with UPT dates following about 1.5months after that (or 3.5mos total from NGB approval)
