I will ETS July 2020 and I will be taking leave in April 2020 and wanted to know how many days will I get to clear CIF and everything else. I am at Ft Riley and I know some people get 5 days and some got 10 days to clear but is it up to my Unit to says how many days i can clear before i take my leave. Also, can i be told to take a PT test while i am clearing post.

Each post has its own policy for clearing. Generally it's 10 working days from your terminal leave start that you'll pick up your clearing papers. I seriously doubt your unit is going to have a PT test in those 10 days you're clearing.

Probably a lot longer than when I got out in 1968 (three days to clear post) one thing to be sure of make it your business that all paperwork (see I told you I’m old) concerning your time in the Service,ie medical,injuries,treatments while in uniform,trust me this is important,Thank you for your Service.

One or two days clearing a post for PCS. ETS was less than one day meaning a few hours and don't let the door hit me in the ass on the way out because I was told I wasn't spending the night on post. Spoken by a new commander with a bad attitude. A friend from my unit was taking leave to visit family in another state (far away) so he met me in Los Angeles where I had been staying since I had business there first then I drove to the east coast. I should have driven solo for a variety of reasons.

I don't know how many days you will get, but have you checked your unit's policy board? If you have a current APFT by the time you ETS you shouldn't have to worry about taking one.
