Has anyone recently had a Conditional Release approved to go from Reserve component to Active?

If so, was USARC the approving authority? How was your experience and do you have any tips or advice, like how long it took, or if you were able to get it expedited etc? (Army)

I am still waiting on mine to get signed... pffttt the hurry up and wait and wait game. But no USARC is not the approving authority your First General Officer is which is usually the 1 or 2 star general in your division not sure what division you are apart of.

Everybody got different experiences at my second unit I moved from New Jersey to Fort Gordon Georgia . At my first unit my conditional release was denied by a brigade commander . Here at my new unit I was told that’s they could get my 368 sign within 2 months from the time I submitted so now is all up to waiting game ...

It took 3-4 months for the G-1 to sign my DD 368. It's easier said then done but just have to be patient.Also the recruiter will require other things to be addressed prior to the transfer so get everything squared away ASAP (MEPS, OPAT, etc.) cause the release is only good for 6 months and then you would have to file for an extenstion - best of luck
