My packet for O3 was submitted last OCT2024 for a UVP slot with the AZ guard. I last checked my status in the G1 portal and it says awaiting scroll assignment and it has been this way for about 3 weeks now. Just trying to see if someone has recently gone through this and has an idea on how long am I looking at for the promotion to go through? I was at 31 months in time in grade when my packet was submitted and I am also currently on title 10 and deployed. Thanks in advance

Typically it should take up to six to nine months for UVP to go through after being submitted but there are numerous stories of individuals who waited for years for their UVP to go through.

However, your status from three weeks ago ("awaiting scroll assignment") indicates that it has made it out of NGB to the DMPM in the Army G-1 and is at the beginning of the screening process. It should only be another two to three months from there (less if the status hasn't been updated to reflect your packet further along the process).

Once your FEDREC packet is submitted by NGB to the HQDA G-1's DMPM, an officer is screened through CID, the Army's IG, etc. After all the screening is done (assuming you weren't flagged), then you would be added to a scroll and sent onward for approvals and eventually the SECDEF's signature.

According to the G1 Gateway, I'm currently sitting at 60 days. I know that my packet was submitted in September 2025 (It's now almost February 2026). At what day range should I expect the scroll to be approved?

Typically that will happen in about 2.5 to 3 months after it is sent from NGB to HQDA

On the slide, the entry point into HQDA is on the left when the packet arrives at the Directorate of Military Personnel Management (DMPM) from NGB.

This is really helpful. So if I'm sitting at 70 days right now, hypothetically it should be about another month? Is that correct?

CH (CPT)(P) (Join to see) - That's is the optimal goal, but as they say in the tire commercials ... mileage may vary.

According to the last laydown (information from September 2024) of the typical time it takes at each stage (i.e., reality vs goal), the average time it takes to get through the HQDA process was around 110 days (185 days for the entire process from the time the unit submits the packet to state, assuming no delays from waiting for a FEDREC board to convene or the packet being returned back to the unit for corrections).

Not quite the goal, but tremendously better than 293 days it was averaging back in 2018 (according to a survey conducted by NGAUS).

CPT Arni, how long did it end up taking for you to promote? Also congratulations! I am currently in a UVP; my packet status has been "Awaiting Assignment to Scroll," for roughly 2 months now.

The average time to get promoted from O3 to UVP in AZ Guard is usually 1-3 months. If you have not heard back after about 8-12 weeks, you should proactively contact us for support. https://tunnelrush3.com
