OTHER APPOINTING AUTHORITIES: Applications from persons eligible for appointment under 30 percent disabled veterans appointment authority under 5 USC 3112 are encouraged. Proof of eligibility will be required. If you are claiming 5-point veterans' preference, you must attach a copy of your DD-214 “Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty” or other proof of eligibility. If you are claiming 10-point veterans' preference, you must attach an SF-15 “Application for 10-Point Veterans' Preference” plus the proof required by that form. Your interest in being so considered should be clearly indicated on your application. Applications also will be accepted from persons who qualify under noncompetitive hiring authorities, such as (but not limited to) Veterans Recruitment Appointment (VRA) eligibles, qualified persons with disabilities, present or former Peace Corps personnel. Additionally, veterans who are preference eligibles or who have been separated from the armed forces under honorable conditions after three (3) years or more of continuous active service may apply. The Defense Authorization Act of November 18, 1997, extended veterans' preference to persons who served on active duty during the Gulf War from August 2, 1990, through January 2, 1992. The law grants preference to persons otherwise eligible and who served on active duty during this period, regardless of where the person served or for how long. The law also authorized the Secretary of each military department to award the Armed Forces Expeditionary Medal for service in Bosnia during the period November 20, 1995, to a date to be determined. The award of the Medal is qualifying for veterans' preference. EO 13154 established the Kosovo Campaign Medal for qualifying service in Kosovo or its contiguous waters or airspace, after March 24, 1999, to a date to be determined. More information on veterans' preference, such as length of service and other conditions required to qualify, is available in the VetGuide that may be found on the United States Office of Personnel Management web site, http://www.opm.gov

Applicants with Special Selection Priority must provide a supplementary statement (on plain paper) which addresses the knowledge, skills and abilities (KSAs) listed above.
