How many RAs get dropped back to AMB after the first year of RA and don't get the full 12 months of RA?
My AMB year runs from Feb 1 and I have just returned to RA (was RA from 2008 to 2012) after a couple of years not traveling. With the new posted criteria (new for me at least), I'm surprised to be told I'll only get 7 months of RA and I'll need to re qualify again from Feb 1 to get it back. This doesn't make a lot of sense to me as if I took until Nov to qualify it would mean I only had RA for 3 months.
What's other RA's experience here?
