I commissioned back in December and am still waiting on orders to report to my unit. Anyone else still waiting on their order?

I commissioned back in December, the Friday before Christmas and I am still waiting on my orders. Anyone else still waiting on their orders as well?
Granted, I had to re-sign my contract almost a month later and was told that would delay my orders. As a background, I was direct commission as a critical care nurse in the Army Reserves. Thanks for any input.

Excuse the typo, I meant “orders” not “order”.

I know it can take a while. I've heard stories where it is up to 6 months or a year. WAs this a commission in the reserves or active duty from reserves. If its with the reserves I would contact the unit/recruiter and they should be able to update you.

I was in a similar situation, the best place to follow up is with HRC - go to the Army Nurse Corps section and get in touch with an assignment officer. You will need CAC access for this but from my experience they are all very friendly, helpful and should be able to point you to the right direction. Goodluck

I'm in a similar situation also. I'm civilian to direct commission, Reserves (70B), commissioned in November and still waiting on orders. I've had a few forms kicked back for correction, but have not received word on when my orders will be processed and available. My recruiter is on paternity leave, so I'm kind of just waiting in limbo. Good luck to you 1LT Jeremy J!

I was commissioned in Dec and got my orders the second week of Jan. Granted I was commissioned through ROTC and am Regular Army, but I kept in contact with HRC till I got my orders. Like everyone else is saying call HRC and ask them about your orders, if you don’t get a direct answer try to get in contact with a tier 2 person instead of the call center people.

This is exactly my situation. Commissioned in June 2019, had to resign my contract in August 2019. Also a 66S for the Army reserves. Been trying to get through this since February 2018. I thought after commissioning the process would be a bit faster... should have known better!
