Just a quick heads-up — the OCHCO VA DRP Bulletin has been updated, and the changes take effect April 24, 2025. Please see the updated memo below for all the details:
Eligibility: Any VA employee (except re-employed annuitants and part-timers) can now submit a DRP request through the Portal.
Employees in occupations listed in Attachment A are also eligible.
All DRP requests will be reviewed for eligibility and approved/disapproved based on the updated procedures and criteria in the Bulletin.
Employees approved for the DRP with signed agreements don’t have to follow return-to-office requirements if their duties allow.
The opt-in period has been extended from April 30, 2025, to May 16, 2025.
