reserve to active - financial hardship?

is it possible for a reserve component enlisted member to transfer to active duty because of a financial hardship?

  • It is, but you need to build a strong memo with your DD368 and mention more than a financial hardship, something more along the lines of it being a dream to serve active duty and you want it for a career. if you have time with your unit and a deployment under your belt its much easier to transfer. Contact your local active recruiter to get the DD368 initiated and take it to your readiness NCO along with your memo. Ask your readiness NCO for the company letterhead to make it look more official. Keep it short somewhere around a half page. Good luck.

  • You can certainly include that on the form but whether or not you get a transfer is up to the needs of your unit, not your financial issues.

  • that is not a good enough reason.
