When an applicant designated CPS (one entitled to veterans’ preference based on 30 percent or more service–connected disability) is tentatively disqualified, there are fewer than three other applicants with adjudicated veterans’ preference on the Hiring Worksheet to select over the CPS applicant, and a nonpreference eligible is tentatively to be selected, the selecting official must first provide a right to review to the CPS applicant. In such an instance, follow the procedures outlined in 627.2, Veterans With 30 Percent or More Compensable Disability, to provide right to review with the Office of Personnel Management.
