This form is the first step for Airmen and Guardians impacted by the COVID-19 vaccine mandate interested in returning to service. To help us quickly connect you with the appropriate recruiter and reinstatement case manager who will assist in guiding you through your personalized reinstatement or re-accession pathway, please include the following details in your message:

1. Desired Return to Service Pathway: Please indicate your pathway of interest:

Reinstatement: This path requires you to apply to the Air Force Board for Correction of Military Records (AFBCMR) before you return to service. The board will then review your case and decide on any requested relief, such as correcting your military records, restoring your rank, and providing back pay or other compensation.

Re-accession: This option allows you to return to service without a prior AFBCMR determination. This means that you will not receive any restored service credit, back pay, promotion, record correction, etc. While you can rejoin more quickly, you still retain the right to submit an AFBCMR application for relief after you have returned to service.

2. Service Component from which you were discharged, separated, or retired:

- Regular Air Force (Active-Duty)
- Air Force Reserve
- Air National Guard
- Space Force


3. Desired Service Component: If you have a preference of which Component you would like to serve your commitment with, please let us know.

- Regular Air Force (Active-Duty)
- Air Force Reserve
- Air National Guard
- Space Force (for prior Guardians)
- Undecided


Once you submit the form, a representative will contact you to discuss the next steps. We look forward to the possibility of welcoming you back.
