Definition

An Extended Leave of Absence (ELOA) is a planned absence from the Regiment for a period that is determined by the type of ELOA being applied for. Once approved, troopers are removed from all primary and secondary billets and placed on the ELOA roster.

Types

There are 3 types of Extended Leave of Absence:

  • Regular ELOA: Regular ELOA counts as negative days towards time in service. It lasts for 45 days and members may request an extension that must be approved by the Chief of Staff or their designate.
  • Medical: Medical ELOA: Medical ELOA does not count as negative days towards time in service. It lasts for 90 days and extensions are not permitted.
  • Military: Military ELOA does not count as negative days towards time in service. It lasts for 300 days and members may request an extension that must be approved by the Chief of Staff or their designate. Personnel on Military ELOA are still eligible for their statutory promotions (PFC-CPL). These will be posted on return from ELOA.

Who Can Apply for ELOA

Members at the rank of Private First Class and above are eligible for ELOA.

Approvals

  • Regular ELOA requests are approved by the Battalion Staff of the trooper applying for leave.
  • Medical and Military ELOA requests must be approved by the Regimental Chief of Staff or their designate.
  • All extension requests must be approved by the Regimental Chief of Staff or their designate.

Requesting ELOA

In order to request an ELOA, a trooper must do the following:

  • Notify their Section/Squad Leader via private message on the forum.
  • Submit an ELOA Request via the ELOA Application Form found under the Resources/Available Forms link at the top of the website. Specify in the Reason section the type of ELOA being requested.
