How long does it take for a conditional release form to be approved/disapproved and who has the final authority to do so? I did 5 years as active duty Navy, currently an active reservist. I am trying to go active duty Marines and was wondering if anyone here has ever done this before?

I did reserve Army to active Army. Took 5 and a half months to get it back. The final approving authority is your commanding general (first general in your chain)

I had to have a conditional release from the reserves to take a position in the DIMA program. It is signed by the first general officer in the chain so it can be a while. Mine was 6 months.
