I had my former SSG who PCSd early this year ask me to unsign my NCOER. He's not really answering why and I also have some issues with my command so I'm wondering if they're trying to sabotage me in some way. Just wondering a few reasons why I would be asked to unsign it.

There’s a long list of reasons why an ncoer would be returned for corrections.
And the signatures need to be removed in reverse order: rated, sr rater, rater.

When you open it in EES, you can click on the details to see why it was kicked back.

most common reasons are:
ACFT date not within rated period
no ACFT noted and no reason given
disallowed comments about ACFT or profile
non-rated time and/or codes incorrect
rater addressing potential or sr rater addressing performance
rater mentioned something on a 1059
rater and sr rater signed out of order

I should also mention just how common this is.
Depending on where you work in the Army, you can expect a 30-50% kickback rate on NCOERs (and OERs) for common errors.
For all our talk about attention to detail, we just don't practice what we preach when evals come up due or overdue.

What probably happened is that HQDA kicked it back after their review and found things in error. The errors are reported to the Rater and Senior Rater. As you are the last person to sign prior to submission, you are the first person to UNSIGN in order for corrections to be made.
