FY 2022 AF & Navy packets

Published

Just curious who has packets in for Air Force or Navy for the upcoming boards in October  and how your processes are going. 
 

I have a packet in with both services, hoping to get a coveted OR slot since they are very few and far between. I passed MEPS in May and am now just twiddling my thumbs until I hear what’s next. 
 

Has anyone heard the numbers of billets opened for nurses in 2022?
 

Specializes in OR.

Yes I understand. I will be frustrated too. Do you have any news or updates from the latest Air Force selection board?

No not for AF. I was pursuing flight nursing in the Air Force reserves, but not active duty so have no up-to-date information on that!

Hi everyone! I have my packet in also for the AF. This delay is terrible ? anyone heard if they have a date yet for when the board meets?

I heard they are clearing all the packets this week… so as soon as the budget is stamped (hopefully next week) the board will convene. Then a couple weeks after that we should know!

My recruiter told me to expect an answer "mid November" for Navy. Good luck y'all!

Yes that would be great! That way I can eat my emotions either way ???. I am trying my best not to focus on it but it’s super hard being that I have been trying to commission since getting into nursing school ? first with the navy through NCP and then with the AF reserves and now active duty AF
