Is there a way to transfer from the reserves to active duty and change my mos in doing so?

I'm going through the same process your going through...YOU have to be on top of things,YOU have to put in as much work in those 2 days or how ever many you have to for drill like its a 5 day job,YOU have to show your superiors you want to transition into AD,don't be that guy standing around waiting for orders to do the little things,when you see those little things jump right to it and help get it done! Many people get to comfortable at drill you have to stay hungry and motivated.Ask questions when you have a block of instructions, pick up extra detail ,finish your classes your given and be on top of things like you want it ,it's competitive out here ,show your worth,I just got put on orders for a couple of months to train within the unit,only a few selected to learn and execute when if we deploy,and hopefully it will extend,I've only been in my unit since October and since then I hit the ground running ,you have to communicate and show them you want it and willing to work for it.ONLY YOU can make it happen!!!!

You need to talk to your local RA recruiter. They can help you with the DD368 and DA 4187. You have to be open to what the Army is offering but it should still be possible.

IF you are looking at going AGR, then you are going to have a bit of rougher go at it...at least right now. There are not many AGR positions below E-5. Not saying there are none but there are not many.

Here is the full process:
-Visit Active Duty Recruiter
-Get DD-368 and a DA-4651 (make sure the recruiter signs it)
-Submit the paperwork (plus a few other things your admin will have you work on)
-Paperwork will go up in the system, stopping at each level above your Company
-Once it is signed by the first General-level Officer with authority in your CoC, it will show a change to those with HRPass access
-IF the release is approved, you will take the DD-368 back to the recruiter and they will start their part of the process (basically, the same as enlistment)

At the point you are released, you will have to contend with the PS Business Rules that are active at that time. Right now, the ONLY retraining option for you are: 18X and 35P if you can qualify for them. If they are taking your MOS, you can also enter active on that MOS and then look at reclassing later through an application MOS (SF, 35P, 12D, etc) or based on In/Out calls.

Check out the current PS Business Rules here:

I would get the DD-368, etc prior to BTA if possible...so if your Company CoC supports you, you can complete the packet immediately to avoid delays.

AGR would be a ways out for you as you need to be at least a more senior SPC to even be remotely eligible and chances of selection are pretty low.

Hope that helps.

1SG Michael Blount on the target, with one addition MOS change is dependent of your ASAVB Scores. Which might require you to retake the ASABV test; to which I advise to do ASVAB Practice Testing. Thank you for asking RP, good to see a soldier asking us old guys.

If you want to go active duty from the USAR, you will need what's called a 'conditional release', which is DA Form 368. It will need to be signed by the first General Officer in your chain of command.

You will then need to follow 1LT Brian Godwin 's suggestion and speak directly to an active duty recruiter. If they can take you, they'll walk you through the rest of the way.

No guarantees that you'll get the MOS you want.

Talk to a Recruter, also you can depending on your GT and ST scores go 38B or 37F. Ft. Bragg has a selection program for reserve Soldiers to cross to Active duty, but the Recruter is you best bet 1st. Good Luck

As nice as it would be to have your leaders know the answer, few will. It is more of a recruiting/retention question. All the advice I have seen so far is sound and accurate.
I did 1 reserve to active transfer during my last command. The retention/recruiting NCO did the majority of the work. As the commander I had to sign releasing the SM and there may have been 1 or 2 other documents required.

From the Army's perspective they just spent thousands of dollars training you. You may not get out of your MOS so quickly.

Anything is possible, however, some things are not as likely. Good luck.

Right now the business rules for Prior Service have changed. If you are E4 and below with less than 36 months active duty time you are able to get option 3 Choose MOS based on qualifications or keep current MOS and get a few duty stations to choose

Contact an active duty recruiter, if the can or will take you in you will need to get a conditional release signed by your commander. This form basicly says they will release you pending the signing of a new contract

Yah. Just check with an AC Recruiter. You'll need a Conditional Release (those can be a long time to get), but most competent AC Recruiters know how to cut through the red tape. IRT the MOS issue - it's gonna be a crapshoot and will entirely depend on which MOS you want.
