I know the steps of calling branch and getting BC approval as well as finding a new unit with a paragraph and line, but wanted advice from someone who had recently done it. <br /><br />Do you have any tips or tricks to make this a process that is a little less painful?Do you have any tips or tricks to make the process of branch transferring to MI a little less painful?2019-08-06T08:58:36-04:00CPT Private RallyPoint Member4887212<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hello RallyPoint!

You need to complete MICCC to become branch qualified and DMOSQ, then complete a 4187 to HRC to have your PMOS changed to 35A.Response by LTC Daren Walker made Aug 7 at 2019 1:37 AM2019-08-07T01:37:21-04:002019-08-07T01:37:21-04:00SGM Private RallyPoint Member4890610<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you were a direct appointment to AMEDD, (no OCS or ROTC), you might have to apply for a new appointment as a 35D, as opposed to a branch transfer.Response by SGM Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 7 at 2019 8:46 AM2019-08-07T08:46:06-04:002019-08-07T08:46:06-04:00CPT Enrique M.4891730<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>From AMEDD to another branch is not easy at all as we are direct commissioned into the branch, most of the time from what I have seen is that you need to get a new appointment which <a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="786641" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/786641-11z-infantry-senior-sergeant-ca-arng-hq-california-arng">SGM Private RallyPoint Member</a> has stated.<br /><br />The only person that can help answer your question would be our branch manager in AMEDD.<br /><br />Are you thinking of going to a different branch because you have different interests and AMEDD can't fulfill it?<br /><br />There are a lot of benefits in AMEDD when it comes to career growth but like many other things it also has its cons. And branch transfer is one of them ;)Response by CPT Enrique M. made Aug 7 at 2019 2:20 PM2019-08-07T14:20:26-04:002019-08-07T14:20:26-04:002019-08-06T08:58:36-04:00
