What AR covers the restrictions/regulations on the amount of leave authorized for PCS that underwent Curtailment of DEROS?

Is their an existing AR that regulates/restricts the amount of leave that is approved for PCS when your DEROS has undergone a Curtailment? PCS’ing from Alaska to Hawaii. Turned in my Levy Packet to S-1 to get orders and was told that I am only allowed to begin PCS leave on my DEROS date. Attempting to discern whether this decision was made on behalf of discretion of higher authority or if it is stated in an existing AR platform? Have researched AR 630-14 Overseas Tours and spoken with my NCO support channel as well as my retention NCO and have been unable to find an answer.

I am PCSing to Hawaii as well and I was told anything over 45 had to be approved by the BDE CDR. I’m taking 30 days as well as permissive so I am not sure. Maybe it is based upon your current leaders or unit, as you have mentioned.

If you are currently on an overseas assignment what they are telling you is correct, you can’t start leave before your adjusted DEROS date, for example, if your DEROS is 10 February, you can’t start leave on 20 January.

When transportation book your flight, you’ll have a better idea when to start your leave. Transportation can schedule to depart 5 days before or 5 days after your DEROS. I hope this helps, good luck to you...
