Terminal Leave Regulation

Hey guys. Just in a situation that doesn’t make sense to me.

I submitted terminal leave. I have my leave ending the day I ETS from the Army.

My leave was denied. The reason stated was that I need to move the end date back a couple of days. The reason initially given was that “soldier needs to report to unit for final out”. Then after my PSG talked with my 1st Sgt he was told it was just an admin thing and I wouldn’t have to return to the unit.

I’ve never heard of that. Tried to look up the regulation and can’t find anything. So I figured I’d ask here if that’s actually a thing.

I don’t want to be gone then have someone freaking out because PFC Snuffy isn’t here ya know.

Thanks for the help guys.

Edit for more clarification.
