Yah I'm sure it would be different in my own case, but even with that belief I still wouldn't risk it! Furthermore the MIR shouldn't be so freely suggesting it to members.

Ok Release Section had a variety of ways VR & 3B are different including (but not limited to): - Moving Entitlements - Government of Canada Priority Hire - Pension/Transfer value amount - Top ups from SISIP - VOC Rehab Basically its all different. Also, I got clarification from the medical...

I have sent out some emails to both CAF TG and the base Release Section to gain some insight. I'll post here with the latest information from more experienced and credible sources! Thanks everyone for the responses! Cheers

I’m on it! Awaiting a phone meeting!

This is where I’m thinking the misunderstanding is taking place. However they need to understand exacting what they are telling people. There is a difference between saying “VR & 3B aren’t any different” and “VR & 3B aren’t hugely different aside from benefits X Y & Z”   There might only be a...

UPDATE: So despite everyone’s opinion here I’ve now been told by a second representative from my local health services unit “if you don’t want/can’t wait for a medical release just VR, as you have the same benefits from VAC”. So now that’s both someone in Case Management and someone from the...

I had requested a posting to CAF TG about 2 years ago when shit was coming off the rails. All of the CAFTG (IPSC/JPSU) briefings I'd seen up to that point used the analogy "If the member needs to take a knee, that's why we're here" so I figured perfect, I'll get over there, get some guidance...

Thank you for all of the information especially on the admin piece!  I have drafted a memo requesting posting to CAFTG as their guide states "RTD lasting beyond 180 days member may be posted to TG" My CofC (at least in the headquarters) appear to be more concerned about position numbers and...

How do I speed this process up? It sometimes feels like the system is designed in a way where you need to be (appear to be) the biggest bag of $hit going to get any sort of direction or help? ` What is the "no disclosure" option? Does it serve to speed up the decision? If so How?

Someone within the military medical system, who when pressed couldn't provide me with a reference to verify. I'll be following up with them especially seeing as that sort of inaccurate information could lead someone into a really tough spot.

So I've always heard form pretty well everyone "don't get frustrated & VR, wait for your medical release if you are entitled to one". Now (unsurprisingly) my file is taking forever to get to Ottawa and back and this is only going to take longer as COVID19 is making the backlog worse, I've...

Course stared in October, and I'm happy with the trade thus far...
