If you do admin work at home, hopefully your command will allow you to claim non-pay dills if you don't get RMP's.


AT/ADT/Mobilization, etc is not capped at 130 IIRC.

However...you cannot get more than 365/366 points in a year. If you do a butt-load of IDT early in the year and then get mobed you might not get all the points you earned. It would be hard to achieve that, but my wife did once with pre-mob preps.
Thanks for the good info on IDT pts... I guess if you followed all your IDT up w\ continous MPA you could run into the 365 thing...

Can anyone enlighten me? Can you get a civil service pension and a reserve military retirement? I have a friend who says yes, as long as you don't convert your military time to accrue seniority in the GS world(ie instead start at the bottom to get both) I also hear a lot of dudes say you can't double dip.

You CAN get both a civil service (Federal GS) and a Reserve Military retirement. You can also "buy out" your active duty time to get more credit towards GS retirement, and the points still count towards your Reserve retired pay.
