SAF IPPT, IPT & RT Questions...

[Stoicism]

Need help with some question regarding RT and IPPT pay/reward.

Lets say I fail my IPPT for the current window and I manage to complete my 20 RT, can I retake IPPT for the current window?

Purpose for asking is, I want to get both the RT pay and IPPT reward.

first time doing ippt after ord, i'll be having my ippt this week at khatib fcc
seems like it's raining almost everyday, do we still have to report there if it is raining?

If you think it's going to rain then don't go. You have to retake it if your 2.4 is cancelled. Check weather forecast and look to the skies before you commit an hour at camp.

yes. u still have to report.

two scenarios. either mindef will send u sms on the cancellation (very rare) if weather can be foreseen and confirm), or u might be asked to book a separate ippt for 2.4km run only.

the above only applies when there is a very bad weather.

however, if u are taking as a ipt-ippt, 2.4km might be exempted and attendance still taken.

Nope. Once RT or IPPT (pass) is done, your obligations for that window has been satisfied. Best scenario is to maintain that fitness level and whack ippt once window reopens.

after completing your 20 RTs, u can take a non-ICT IPPT within the same window (as u are no longer subjected to RT program).

only in-between during your 20 RTs, u cannot book a non-ICT IPPT. Unless, it is an ICT-IPPT as is during your ICT.

BUT... all forms of IPPT allowance (1/2 day service pay for attendance) only allows up to 3 sessions. In this case, u would already had 3 sessions of RT-IPPT.

what qualifies you for extra money is if u pass your IPPT with incentives or higher, depending on what you got for RT-IPPT.

Answered all my question and even those that I had not considered, thank you for the well-detailed respond.

Yes, but I want to get both IPPT money and RT money, call me cheap but who doesn't wanna get paid to keep fit

if u just want attendance to be clocked, just go.

if u want to chiong and pass, then check the weather first. if not can go other camp, i know maju is sheltered area for 2.4 so no problem raining or storm also can do

Just received a call from mindef saying that my ipt has not complete yet and say that I can take up some program from Health promotion board at area outside of army camp and consider as 1 ipt.

But he didn't explain clearly and just say that I can go to health promotion board website to apply and find out more information.

Anybody know about that? I can't find any info from the website.

Incentive, yes, since it's for different windows.

Rank pay I believe will get also.

Does anyone happen to know if I can default my last one or two cycles of IPPT/RT/IPT if I'm expected to MR next year? I have never defaulted so it seems like it'd be a safe consideration. Wondering if they will use it as reason to not MR personnel haha

by right yes.

As your final in-camp is end-May 2018, your expected IPPT window will be valid until end-Mar 2019 (according to fiscal year). Unless, your MR ceremony is on Apr 2019 or after.
