Frequently Asked Questions

What is reinstatement? Am I eligible?

Reinstatement allows you to reenter the Federal competitive service workforce without competing with the general public for civil service positions. You may apply for any open civil service position, but reinstatement eligibility also enables you to apply for Federal jobs
open only to status candidates. You must have held a career appointment at the time of your separation or career-conditional appointment within the 3 years preceding your application for reinstatement.  There are exceptions to the 3 year requirements.  Contact your HR representative for more detailed information.
