I received an email from transitions stating that my NLT date was November 23rd. I have 72 something days of leave and have been approved for 20 PTDY. That is a total of more than the NLT date. I still have to go to transitions, clear installation, and final out. I did a request for 28 day extension that would move the NLT date to December 21st and sent it in along with the appropriate leave slips. Now, here is the problem, Fort Polk was hit with a hurricane the day after I sent in the request and I have not heard back if it was approved or even forwarded to the next step to be considered and processed.
Now Fort Polk is still about 50% out of power, most people are not back to work, and none of the Soldier in/out processing is taking place.
If the November 23rd date sticks then I am on PTDY right now and will eventually have to process out in a leave status I am guessing. If the December 21st date is approved I start PTDY on September 16th. So you see? Not sure what duty status I am in.
