Where can I find clarification on Prior Service Re-Enlistment Training?

Looking for information on PSBCT - I've seen threads claiming it to have been snuffed - although my recruiter informed me this week I'd attend a 6 week refresher at Leonardwood (PSBCT) - while other sources claim it's back into the fray immediately upon in-processing. I have been on the civilian side for over 3 years now, but my IRR time finished just over a year ago. Is this a case of mass miscommunication? I've been unable to find any official message concerning - Any educated insight on this is very much appreciated. Thank you.

I enlisted prior service after 17 year break. Did not have to go to basic. In fact, I could not even retake WLC (PDLC) when I wanted to do so to bring myself up to speed.

I am surprised you have to go to Basic.. Unless you are changing branches

You can check out prior service business rules on army reenlistment.com

But I can tell you if you have to go back through basic it will be the 6 week course. Then you'll go to your AIT. Are you planning on switching MOSs? If you have any questions send me a message.
