IVD For Aug
Can I put in an IVD now for August and expect it to get awarded assuming the criteria is met? Or do IVDs not get looked at until the first 20th PCS for the next bid period? Also, is there a way to see if the PCS had run yet? For instance, has the 1700 daily PCS run yet?

And they’re a great flexibility tool, don’t mess with it except increase pay.

IVDs will pay a vacation day, 3:30 or possibly 3:45 depending on your vacation situation. So if you are dropping a 7 hour turn there is a big pay hit. And you will essentially get less vacation pay in the future so it really depends on how much you want to work in the months in question.
You do it via PCS just like any drop.

Can I use an IVD on an off day to simply boost my pay up, or is it only to drop a trip?
For example, I have a one day trip and then a day off. Can I use 2x IVD's there? One to drop the turn, one to simply add 3:30 of pay?
Finally, do IVD requests have to be in by the 20th, or can they be processed on subsequent PCS runs later in the month?
