depends.. the AD community must be way overmanned and the Reserves community willing to take you. Also, if you still owe them time for training or a bonus.. you will not be released.
In other words, you pretty much have to already be accepted as a reserves component Officer before you can request to be released from AD.. and you may be required to pay back a portion of any bonus you have received.

THIS IS PROHIBITED AND WRONG! Per AR 600-20, para 4-14 (c) sub 2 states, "Certain types of relationships between officers and enlisted personnel are prohibited. Prohibited relationships include: (2) Dating, shared living accomodations other than those dictated by operational requirements, and intimate or sexual relationships, between officers and enlisted personnel." The regulation goes on to state that if the relationship is not known and results in marriage, the marriage is legal, HOWEVER, both commands of the effected servicepersons may take action and again I quote, "When evidence of fraternization between an officer and enlisted member prior to their marriage exists, their marriage does NOT preclude appropriate command action..." This whole "awww isn't that sweet attitude" is poppycock and as an officer he should know better. As an officer he is a leader and expected to lead by example. So the standard he has just set is "ignoring regulations and orders is alright as long as you are in love or because your heart says so." He should be ashamed of himself - officers used to live by the motto 'One Standard - No Exception'. Apparently, in his case, this does not apply. He will reap what he sows - and trust me, his Soldiers are watching him. I hope he enjoys his command after they get wind of this; he is in for a rough ride and a rash of fraternization problems. Exactly what is he supposed to say to his First Sergeant if Top gets caught sleeping with a Soldier?? What do you think the First Sergeant is going to say to him? Got a good idea, "But sir, how can you bust me - you MARRIED an enlisted person!" How does your fiance plan to stop a Platoon Sergeant from advancing a lower enlisted faster than the others because they are involved? How can he possibly enforce a rule he is breaking? You, I can excuse. Him? This has been drilled into his head since his initial commissioning course, OBC and his required Ethics courses. Apparently, he was sleeping. What happened to doing the "Hard Right"? Guess that's why they call it "hard." Too bad. I linked the regulation below if you want to verify. P.S. If you check 4-14 paragraph (a) it makes it clear that this regulation applies to ALL SERVICES, ALL COMPONENTS and Guard and Reserves alike. Also note, this regulation says NOTHING about it only being wrong if you and him are in the same chain of command. That is a myth - read the regulation.

Not usually for active to reserve. The Conditional release is typically for reserve/guard to active
Put in an active packet....

No, you'll need to complete your enlisted tour first.
Why not apply for a Green to Gold scholarship? You go to college on Uncle Sugar's dime, and come out as an officer.

It probably depends if they need the individual to do something else. If he/she's due to go on tour in a few weeks, probably not. If he/she just got back from tour, maybe.
I don't think it would be considered a "release" anyway. You wouldn't be leaving the military, you'd just be changing jobs. Lot o' paperwork. : p
