Unfortunately they will give you your choices.
Hey there Steve-O,
I myself went through a medical remuster. I was infantry, now waiting ACS Tech 3's.
You have 3 choices to make with the BPSO under a medical remuster. The BPSO doesn't care what your med limits are. They care about what choices you are making and will look at whats available to you. The only ones that care about Med Limits are the Career Managers. They look at what your med limits are, and can you be employed in the trade.
The process for a Med remuster is if you already went through 2 T Cats and are going on a P Cat and no longer fit so to speak for your current trade. Then your med file goes to Ottawa for a Med File review. There they will determine your Med Limits and future career, either a med release ( No longer meet UOS - Universiality of Service) or Med OT.
Once that info is sent back ( to your Unit, MO, BPSO etc ) If a Med OT is approved then you will get an appointment with the BPSO. There you will choose up to 3 trades. Keep in mind what your med limits are and minimum med limits for each trade.
You will be interviewed by the BPSO like a job interview. They will write up there report, your Unit CO will have a report and any course reports will be provided and sent back to Ottawa.
Once your file is in Ottawa, it will be passed around to all the respective career managers by D Mil C reps. They will look at if you are employable based on med limits. If approved by any( may be all ) you will be notified when a career manager has accepted and will send you an offer. Usually an officer will notify you about this and will council you on the decision. In lamin terms, do you accept or not. If you accept, the career manager is notified as well as D Mil C. Then your official message will be sent to you on when the OT is effective and have notes listed for pay, rank, if there is an environment change, seniority dates etc.
I got my offer while in the field on Ex.
The Med OT process by passes any AVOTP, LOTP and can happen at anytime during the year, there is no limit on when like the other OTs mentioned
I hope that this has answered any questions you may have and if not, Im sure others will add to this.
Best of Luck.
