REMINDER:  If you plan on fighting your ineligible designation, please remember to submit a letter to your Division DO or AD, and to submit an application form to HR by fax or in person NLT March 14.  It might be smart to do this in person, and to include an endorsement at the bottom of a copy you keep which can be signed by the person to whom you submit the application.    Even though these applications will most likely be rejected, this needs to be done to show intent to accept and to establish grounds for further action.

Our legal adviser has also suggested that we submit a formal Laboratory Complaint Resolution action. We have looked at P-791, and it appears this policy would not apply to our situation since the VSP does not appear to be in violation of any existing policy--since there are none on this issue.  The VSP also does not fit the two other criteria in the policy, which are a complaint over any form of official discipline or over involuntary separation.  However, if any of you smart folks can figure out whether or not The VSP and its attendant rules violate any existing policies, than we should submit the grievances.  This can and should occur after denial of any application submitted.
