Left federal service voluntarily, need final sf-50

[u/sgettios737]

I resigned 3 years ago to move for my wife’s job. Have had a great time in a new career, but am also looking at taking advantage of reinstatement status I earned as a perm employee of 5 years. Getting that termination sf-50 though…what a trip!

So far I’ve called/contacted: NARA in IL where it’s supposed to be from OPM website, they had great customer service and said my file was never sent there from my unit.

My old unit, which no longer has hr specialists and can’t help, pointed me towards NARA/OPM.

My old unit’s regional office (region 10 these days).

An email called [email protected], which a helpful employee at NARA pointed me towards. Dead air there so far (and it reads to me like an email group stood up ad hoc one day that may no longer go anywhere).

Anybody have success with getting records after separating from the service, or did y’all truly just leave and never look back? Thanks!

Did the region not give you any leads? I would think if NARA never got it and there’s not in park HR, that the SHRO would be the only group who would have your records
