Veterans who are disabled or who served on active duty in the Armed Forces during certain specified time periods or in military designated campaigns are entitled to preference over non-veterans both in hiring from competitive lists of eligibles and in retention during reductions in force. Preference does not have as its goal the placement of a veteran in every vacant Federal job; however, preference does provide a uniform method by which special consideration is given to qualified veterans seeking Federal employment. When applying for Federal jobs, eligible veterans should claim preference on their application or resume.
To be entitled to preference, a veteran must have been discharged under honorable conditions which is documented on Member Copy 4 of the DD214. If the appropriate copy of the DD214 is not submitted and the discharge status is not confirmed, the candidate will not receive credit for their claimed active duty military service.

If claiming 10 points, applicants must submit Member Copy 4 of their DD214 and an SF-15 along with the documentation specified on the reverse side of the form. If the SF-15 is not submitted, the documentation required by the form verifying the service connected disability (e.g., letter from the VA confirming the disability) must be submitted in order to receive 10-point preference consideration. If you are claiming derived preference (relative of the veteran), you must submit Member Copy 4 of the DD214, the SF-15 and the supporting documentation specified on the reverse side of the form. All candidates must submit all other required application materials as specified in this vacancy announcement.

To be well qualified, applicants must satisfy all qualification requirements for the vacant position and be rated in the Highly Qualified category (which is equivalent to well qualified for USCCR under these procedures). CTAP and/or ICTAP eligibles must submit one of the following as proof of eligibility for the special selection priority: a separation notice; a recent (or last) performance appraisal; a "Notice of Personnel Action" (SF-50) documenting separation; or, if applicable, an agency certification that you cannot be placed after injury compensation has been terminated; an OPM notification that your disability annuity has been terminated; OR a Military Department or National Guard Bureau notification that you are retired under 5 U.S.C. 8337(h) or 8456.
If you are relying on your education to meet qualification requirements:
Education must be accredited by an accrediting institution recognized by the U.S. Department of Education in order for it to be credited towards qualifications.
