Statement on the Engagement of CFSA Part I Annuitants:
The Management Framework issued at VCDS 5323-1 (DGRC) 6 March 2012, which remains in force at this time, affords that
annuitants in receipt of pension benefits under the CFSA Part I who endeavor to undertake a period of Reserve Force service in
fulfillment of a requirement anticipated to last longer than one year shall rejoin and recontribute to the CFSA Part I under the terms of
"Option 2" at para 2.13 of CMP instr 20/04. This is the guiding principle on which an AFC decision was based and promulgated by
the CDS at 5323-1 (D Res) 5 Mar 2012.Notwithstanding this guiding principle, certain circumstances may exist where an
application may be made to VCDS requesting an exception which would permit engagement of a CFSA Part I annuitant under the
terms of "Option 1" (maximum 330 days in any 365 day period).
CFSA Part I annuitants wishing to apply for this position with an expectation of being approved for service under the terms of "Option
1" as detailed in Para 2.13 of CMP instr 20/04 will only be considered:
· in cases where the position is currently vacant;
· in the absence of currently serving Reserve Force members not in receipt of benefits under CFSA Part I who apply;
· in the absence of currently serving Reserve Force members who are CFSA annuitants wishing to apply under the terms of "Option
2" who apply;
· where a reasonable effort has been made to fill the position using non-annuitants or annuitants under the terms of "Option 2;"
· where a defined operational impact, including activities that support the implementation of SSE pursuant to CANFORGEN 033/18,
can be substantiated to the VCDS should the position remain vacant;
· where clearly-identified and expressed plan is articulated to remedy the need to use a CFSA Part 1 annuitant under the terms of
"Option 1;" and
· where expressed written authority from the VCDS for a specific exception has been requested by the employing unit's L1 and
received.
Note: The employing unit is responsible for requesting a specific exception through their L1pursuant to direction at VCDS 5323-1
(DDFP) 7 September 2017 - Management Framework Update - CFSA Annuitants - Fulltime Reserve Service. Approval from VCDS
must be received prior to recommending an applicant to the Class "B" or "C" Reserve Service Approving Authority (DRSM).
