Dear all need ur advice on my situation?
I signed the 5yr contract in OCS march13, and i was not accepted as regular because of security clearance, thus i just waited and finally was told i am cleared in Dec13, however i had to make a decesiona and decided not to sign as i wanted to study and did not like unit life.
I told the recruiting officer in december i would not want to be a regular and he said no problems and that i can be terminated. After knowing i am not interested to sign on , i received a reguar pay on 10dec13 which is only 10 days but he assured me i can be terminated. upon receiving the money i called and clarified and was told not to use the money and that i will have to return it, so i agreed. But on 7jan14 i got called by my s1 saying that i have signed a contract and u cant break it as it states minimum of 3yrs. I was shocked , quickly called arc to chk and they still told me no worries and he talked to my s1, and said AMOC will call me up fo interview to tell me how to proceede and settle the money,but my ord date might extend alittle. Currently i am confused, as i am clear i want to leave the force and what are my options?
1) must i serve the mnimum 3yrs? , or can i return the total amount given from nov13 to dec13 ($13k) and become a NSF?
2) how is it possible the recruting officer assured me i can be terminated when my s1 now says i have to serve 3 damn yrs?
3) i was given no copies of my conttract and from many people advice , ARC did not do a good job in recruting offcers.
so long as you didn't use the regular pay , engagment bonus or whatever money nsf not suppose to have and return full you will be safe trust the recuitment officer they handle this type of case everyday compare to your S1
Ok can , I am really worried cause I have planned for my studies n if they ask me serve 3yrs my future plans will be ruined. Should I see the mp if they say I have to die die serve 3yrs even if I am willing to return all the $.?
anyone have such similar experiences ? i cant slp at all due to this , its affecting me real bad, need ur help guys
