Hi,
I received an offer for a CT from Res to Reg along with a OT from Infantry officer to Armoured O. I am totally confused by one component of my offer. I have been granted TIR of 1 year and 43 days. I'm supposed to relinquish my rank to Officer Cadet until I am done BOTC. I have been given IAP bypass (I will likely bypass BOTC and CAP as well because I have them both). I am then to be re-promoted to 2Lt retro to the date I start. 1 year later if I have all my courses, I will be promoted to Lt.
Now looking into this a bit further. That's the standard promotion timing to Lt.
My question is....What is the point of the TIR granted?
My recruiter said he isn't really sure, but it will effect my EPZ date somehow. This is not really reflected in my offer. It does not seem to correlate to my pay either, which is detailed elsewhere on my offer.
Any help would be appreciated...
