Can an E5 Promotable with 10 years TIS go indef if not promoted to an E6 ? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/can-an-e5-promotable-with-10-years-tis-go-indef-if-not-promoted-to-an-e6 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hi. I am an E5 Promotable, with 8 years TIS. I am OCONUS currently and already got put on orders to CONUS with DEROS JUL22. My current ETS is OCT22. I really don&#39;t think I can get promoted in the next 2 years as points have been super high and my career counselor is saying that I can&#39;t reclass, I can only reenlist with option 1 for 2 years or more(to meet SRR) and that will put me to 10 years TIS, then I&#39;ll go indefinite term. I can&#39;t find in any regulation that E5&#39;s can go indef. only E6. My reenlistment window is open as of 19Oct21.

In fact, not that long ago I reclassed a SGT with 14 years from 91J to 92F just so he could make SSG and retire. He made SSG the next month.<br /><br />The SRR to go from a long tour OCONUS area to CONUS area is 12 months from the report date, so if your DEROS is July 2022 your report date should be Aug/Sep 2022 and your SRR should be Aug/Jul 2023.
