Disability Retirement
The federal government allows employees who are unable to work to retire under a disability
retirement. It is in the best interest of both employees and the federal government for employees to remain gainfully employed in their current grade or pay level, as long as they can provide useful and efficient service without endangering themselves, others or government property. Disability retirement should be the very last option and should be used only when attempts have been made to preserve an individual's employment, and those attempts have failed.

Not an expert on this, but have read a few appeal cases on the web. The only exception to the one year rule that I have seen is if you were unable to file for some mentally incompetence reason.
When the one year rule came into play? Don't know, but I would say it probably has been for a long time.
Wish I had better news.
