I don't know, but I can't see logically why your entry into PAS should be delayed. If you are committed to the minimum return of service, that would take you past the 18/40 point. I think it is possible that any offers made in future will be based on transfer at the 18/40 point, but that is a matter for the service personnel staffs. I think the same arguments should apply to the FRI, which also carries a minimum R-o-S condition. Good Luck.
