If I submit a DD 368 to go active, and then get accepted for AGR, will it damage or effect my DD 368 processing?

I have a quick question. My component is army reserve and I submit the DD 368 which is changing to active component, but if I request for AGR program and If I get accepted then is this gonna give damage or effect to my DD 368 processing(Which means get rejected from changing to Active duty)?

So I went from ADOS Guard to M Day Reserve to TDG Guard. From that last move I went Fed Tech with my unit and finally AGR. My two cents make a list of pros and cons and stick with a track. Side note it took my 368 over a year to process out of the reserves. A lot can happen in that time.

How do you expect to go active and accept an AGR tour at the same time?

You won’t be able to do both. If you’ve waited 2 years to be released from the Reserves you might want to just consider going AGR. If I’m not mistaken, after you finish your AGR tour if you still want to go active, you can re-enlist into active duty. SFC Private RallyPoint Member can you confirm that for me?

AGR is not a for sure thing. It can take a year to get accepted or you might not get accepted at all. It’s a waiting game for AGR. Your best bet is to go active duty. Plus a conditional release can take up to a year.
