# §307.104. Treatment of individuals serving under VRAs.

- (a) Because VRAs are made to positions otherwise in the competitive service, the incumbents, like competitive service employees, may be reassigned, promoted, demoted, or transferred in accordance with the provisions of [part 335](/cfr/5/part335.md) of this chapter.
- (b) A veteran with less than 15 years of education must receive training or education prescribed by the agency.
- (c) **Appointments are subject to investigation by OPM.** A law, Executive order, or regulation that disqualifies a person for appointment in the competitive service also disqualifies a person for a VRA.
- (d) The Veterans Recruitment Appointment date for a recently separated veteran must occur before the end of the 3-year eligibility period and may not be extended.
