Federal agencies treat active duty service members as veterans, disabled veterans, and preference eligible when they submit, as part of their application, a certification of active service in lieu of a DD‑214, indicating the service member is otherwise eligible and will be discharged or released within 120 days from the date of submission. A certification letter should be on letterhead of the appropriate military branch of the service and contain: (1) the military service dates including the expected discharge or release date;

and (2) the character of service (i.e., honorable), including the rank, dates of active duty service, type of discharge, and any terminal leave dates. This certification must be signed by, or under the direction of, the adjutant, personnel officer, or commander of your unit or higher headquarters. Active duty members who fail to provide a valid certification of service with their initial application will be found not eligible.

Members may be appointed before the effective date of their military retirement/separation if they are on terminal leave.
