Are all total days in Part VI calculated from the date of complaint filing or the date of a remand following an appeal to EEOC’s Office of Federal Operations?
A. No. Only total days in Part VI., Sections A., B. and C., are calculated from the date of complaint filing or the date of remand following an appeal to EEOC’s Office of Federal Operations. Total days in Part VI, Section D, are calculated from the date the agency’s responsibility for issuing the final agency decision (FAD) began. These dates are indicated on Form 462 itself: subsection 1, the date of the agency’s receipt of a request for a FAD; subsection 2, the end of the 30-day election period; and subsection 3, the date of the agency’s receipt of the AJ remand order for FAD without an Administrative Judge’s decision.
