§ 333.103 - Preference in temporary and term appointments outside the register.

In actions subject to this part, each agency shall grant veteran preference as follows:

(a) When numerical scores are used in evaluation and referral, the agency shall grant 5 additional points to preference eligibles under section 2108(3) (A) and (B) of title 5, United States Code, and 10 additional points to preference eligibles under section 2108(3) (C) through (G) of that title.

(b) When eligible candidates are referred without ranking, the agency shall note preference as “CP” for preference eligibles under section 2103(3)(C) of title 5, United States Code, and as “IP” for all other preference eligibles under that title. (At its discretion, the agency may use the notation “XP” for preference eligibles under section 2108(3) (D) through (G) of title 5, but those eligibles will not be distinguished from “IP” eligibles in the referral process.)
