How can a prior-service Army get into AF TACP?

Got out of the Army in 2011 E5 19D. Looking to get into the AF TACP. Recruiter said I have to wait for the fiscal year. Kinda gave me the cold shoulder. Does anyone have info on this? Waiting for the fiscal year? Or can I get in now? Rank doesn't really matter.

Air Force is very picky about taking prior service. TACP is also one of the AFSCs (Air Force for "MOS"). How long ago did you talk to the recruiter? It might also be wise to talk to a different AF recruiter.

TACP is only granted so many prior service slots. All the slots are filled this fiscal. Good luck next year. It’s a money allocation thing.
