11b mos reclass voluntary11/19/2023 ![]() Sometimes I referred SMs to Family Support Services just to help them get additional counseling or assistance for families facing unique challenges like relocation during a student's senior year of high school. If you've done this already then I may have over-looked this in the post you wrote. Ensure that your request is well-documented and includes all relevant information regarding your family situation. While it may be challenging, you can formally request a reassignment or deferment due to personal or family circumstances. FYI, the Bde Cdr and Bde CSM may also want to hear from the Career Counselor before they take any action. They may be able to provide guidance, but my thinking is that this may have to go to the Brigade Commander level to advocate on your behalf. Speak with your immediate chain of command to ensure they are up to speed and have a common understanding of the impact of a potential 36-month obligation on your family, especially your son who is in his senior year of high school. I need some answers on what to do next?Ī complex situation for sure, but since you're asking for other's informal thoughts here, I'll provide a few opinions that come to mind. I don’t know why the waiver was denied because I have not had any UCMJ, I made E6 in 5 years and my NCOERs are all MQs with me being ranked 1 of all the NCOs being rated with me. I did all I was supposed to do as a soldier and the Army is telling me to suck it up, but it’s not just me it’s my family to. ![]() I also only have 19 months left on my contract and the Army will probably make me sign a 36 month obligation because it’s Alaska and I don’t have much time left. But I have a month left before I’m suppose to report to ALC and I can’t move my son with that little time left in his senior year. My waiver just came back and it was denied with no reason why and I’m still waiting on my high school stabilization to go through. I reached out to HRC again and they told me to resubmit the high school stabilization on IPPS-A since it’s out now and to file a voluntary reclass waiver with 11B proponent which I did both. Well a few days after that I came down on orders for ALC TDY in route to Alaska with a report date of Januwhich would have my son 4 months away from graduation. I am not ALC complete so I reached out to HRC 11B branch to get a date and they told me I was a 91E to reach out to them, I told them no that was suppose to be fixed I was a 11B. I went to AIT graduated and came back to my unit. This came out a week before AIT started so I reached out to everyone and they said I had to go to the school because I had a ATTRS slot and I would be FTR to a school and it would hurt my career but not to worry. But anyway my orders got revoked and I was staying at my current unit as a 11B with my new ETS date. This was before IPPS-A came out and we was in that brown out. It was a new guy this time and he told me I could have reclassed and filed for high school stabilization at the same time but now all I could do is file the high school stabilization but I would have to stay 11B so that’s what I did. ![]() ![]() I went back to my career counselor to ask him want I could do about my assignment because it would put us in a financial bind and to see if I could go somewhere else. My assignment came out and my wife is a school teacher so she started applying for jobs where we was going but couldn’t get one because she’s not bilingual. I got a date for AIT and was just waiting on my assignment to come down. I was told by my career counselor that I could not reclass and file for high school stabilization at the same time so I said ok that’s fine hopefully I will still be at home more with a new mos because it was only for 2 years then I would go back to 11B and finish my career out. My back story is I have been a 11B my whole career and a year ago I was looking to reenlist to reclass so I would be home more for my sons senior year of high school and my daughter who would be going into her senior year the following school year.
