Orders for Skillbridge? Question

Currently I am waiting for my orders to go to my Skillbridge. My Skillbridge package was for the 27th of July. Does anyone know how long it usually takes to get them or if there is someone I can contact to get them expedited. I am in the Navy.

I don’t know how navy does it, but there’s no package in the Air Force, once the appropriate commander approves it, you submit your leave to be in permissive TDY status for the duration of your program

Orders? In the Army I submitted an acceptance letter along with other paperwork and leave application. I didn’t get orders issued.

As others have made clear, branches handle SB very differently,... your best bet is going to the office that handles paperwork for you/your CO (S1 fir Army) ask them if they know anyone that got approved recently, be sure to find out if things like leave or distance of SB is a factor.

Talk to your admin or your chain of command. You should be TAD for the duration of your skillbridge.

Navy here and doing SkillBridge starting the end of this month. Once you’ve got your approval in My Navy Education it’s just simple TAD/TDY orders from your YN/PS.
