You will need to make contact with your Commander, your Retention NCO and your RPAC (if applicable). There is a packet that needs to be completed.Response by MSG Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 18 at 2021 3:38 AM2021-03-18T03:38:31-04:002021-03-18T03:38:31-04:00MAJ Private RallyPoint Member6833296<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>No. You need to request to transfer. The packet requires a statement from you why you want to transfer, a 4651, and a retention exit counseling.Response by MAJ Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 18 at 2021 8:48 AM2021-03-18T08:48:13-04:002021-03-18T08:48:13-04:00SFC Private RallyPoint Member6834253<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you're asking about transferring then that's been answered pretty well. But if you are asking because you signed a six year contract and want to know what happens after your ETS then that's different. All Soldiers will owe an 8 year MSO. If you separate prior to your 8 year mark you'll automatically be transferred into the IRR Reinf Control Group until your 8 year commitment ends. Even when you're not serving in an AD or RC component that time still counts toward pay if you ever rejoinResponse by SFC Private RallyPoint Member made Mar 18 at 2021 4:53 PM2021-03-18T16:53:05-04:002021-03-18T16:53:05-04:002021-03-18T03:14:13-04:00
