Basically how long have you been in your current slot, are you beholden to an MOS change or any sort of contractual obligation tied to your service at the specific unit? <br /><br />It&#39;s easy to say go to the IG and go Congressional, but the soldier needs to line up their ducks, and make it hard for the COC to articulate the transfer is unreasonable. <br /><br />*****<br />Was the denial as function of process? <br /><br />I just transferred myself, and it didn&#39;t take a week from the time I uploaded the documents in IPPS-A to the time orders hit. <br /><br />However, IPSS-A is a new system, and I basically have to do all the administrative leg work myself. My point being, this was the first time I had to get a counseling statement signed from a USAR Retention Counselor. <br /><br />I&#39;m speaking as a 14 year in service CPT, with the understanding, OK I have to check all the boxes before there is going to be any forward movement. So the hardest part was finding a Retention Counselor to sign a counseling statement (I probably could have fudged it with anyone signing the counseling statement, but you never know the blow back). <br /><br />So before I&#39;m quick to blame the RFX culture it&#39;s just as easy to slip up on the slightest of things for a transfer that it gets kicked back administratively for the sake of bureaucracy. Transfers are a BIG DEAL in terms of handling of soldiers affairs. So the system protects itself from making them willy nilly CPT Private RallyPoint Member Sat, 22 Jun 2024 03:56:44 -0400 2024-06-22T03:56:44-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/how-to-transfer-out-of-an-rfx-unit?n=8791802&urlhash=8791802 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>What is a RFX unit? MAJ Ronnie Reams Sat, 22 Jun 2024 12:59:05 -0400 2024-06-22T12:59:05-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/how-to-transfer-out-of-an-rfx-unit?n=8791851&urlhash=8791851 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Luckily, RFX is a dead name/system. What it was replaced with I am not certain, but I believe the concept is roughly the same. Now, onto your question:<br /><br />You can request a transfer at any time, but you have to realize that your Commanders at all levels above you are not required in any way shape or form to approve your transfer. <br /><br />Some reasons for denial are that your MOS and Slot are critical to the mission end strength, that they are worried that the slot will not be filled again any time soon, or that you were promoted into the slot, and you have to sit there for 1 year. There are countless reasons, honestly. <br /><br />That being said, if the request was denied for valid reasons, then there is nothing you can do other than to speak with your Commander to fully understand the reasoning(s) behind the denial of the request. Have you asked your Commander why your request was denied? MSG Private RallyPoint Member Sat, 22 Jun 2024 13:47:21 -0400 2024-06-22T13:47:21-04:00 2024-06-21T19:45:13-04:00
