I submitted my packet before the first deadline at the end of March for the Call to Active duty program but I haven't really heard anything back yet. I am curious if any has got orders yet. I know that if selected you will be at your new duty station by Sept 1st. It is getting closer everyday. I am just curious if anyone has received their orders and what is the process after that.

I wish I could return but to old. 58 here, oh my God I wish I could return. I wish you all the best that the military has to offer.

The scrolls are badly behind...HRC has shifted personnel and efforts to focus on getting scrolls to and back from the Senate. There are many of us in the same situation / holding pattern. I, too, submitted my entire packet in mid-March...the process just takes time, for sure...especially for field grade officers. However, the CAD Program Office personnel are very helpful in answering your questions regarding your individual status if you call. I, also, am tracking the objective of a NLT 1SEPT report date.

I got this same information from the CAD office last week. I spoke with my branch manager this week to try and push for some information, but haven't heard back. I'm also someone who submitted Tab A and B in March!

I actually called HRC for CAD Officer Accessions [login to see] or [login to see] ) for an update and spoke with a CPT that was very helpful in explaining the process. It is kind of meticulous, so I would suggest calling for a better explanation than what I can attempt to give. He did say that their goal is to have people in by September 1, but at the rate that scrolls are getting approved, this could mean a good bit of orders won't be issued until July and August. Again, I would highly suggest calling just to make sure everything is good to go for your individual case. I know that wasn't much, but I hope that kind of helps. Good luck!

I did call and my name went to be scrolled in April. I would have thought I would have got a call now. I'll call them to get an update. Thanks.

The House and Senate go on summer break at the end of August. The scrolls should be signed off before then. I think you can search for your name at the below link.

CPT (Join to see) - yeah, it's definitely a little nerve-wrecking since Sept 1 is so close now!

Ditto. I submitted mine back in March but haven't heard anything yet, other than my packet was forwarded for approval. If I get any notification, I'll post - hope it goes through. Best of luck!

I was contacted Monday via email from branch to let me know I was accepted and my assignment. Just received the RFO today. Orders to follow.

I'm hearing a good bit of people are getting calls/RFOs this week. Just checking to see if you all have heard anything back? Also, here's a Facebook group that has a lot of good information about transitioning.

CPT (Join to see) - That's good to hear! Tell your friend to join this group so any questions or concerns they have can get addressed. There are a few people who have already gone through in-processing and so many people going to different places as well.

I actually received a call last week. I did see in a few Facebook groups that almost nobody in the guard has heard anything back. I'm not sure why though? Someone did mention the separate state obligations that have to be taken into consideration. I hope you hear something soon though!

Yeah, I completely agree. They shouldn't keep people hanging on like that. A mass general update would be better than nothing...

Bringing this back from the dead since I don’t know how to post new posts...curious if you ever got orders. I’m working on getting back into a unit (no slot after BOLC so currently in limbo) then submitting for call to duty.

I'm adding my name to someone who hasn't heard anything but the 1SEP, 30SEP dates stated from the CAD office. I also sent in both Tab A and B in March. At least I have a branch manager that seems willing to look into it for me.

Any updates? I have a good friend who isn't on RallyPoint, so I'm following up for him.

Apparently scroll approval nominations went before the Senate on 31 July. Has anyone received notification of approval this week? I have been on scroll for the last month and a half, but haven't heard anything yet.

If you check Reddit I did see something about scrolls for Maj. There is a link to it on one of the threads here.

Unfortunately I'm back in the waiting scroll boat. I was told the information I received over the phone a couple weeks ago must have been a miscommunication.
