Can your Chain of command continue to prevent you from going to the board even after you’ve hit your primary zone?

Can your 1sgt and commander continue to deny your appearance to a promotion board based off of previously resolved issues or even recommend a soldier of the month board even after you’ve been a specialist since 2017. Just starting to get really demoralizing watching all my peers promote over me for issues that I had no control over and still managed to overcome them. Pretty sure new policy states once I hit my primary zone I still have to go get a board appearance. Just need some opinions or answers on this I’m so confused

You don't need opinions, you need references. The source of your answer is AR 600-8-19. Understand that "will/must" means that Commanders must perform an action and that "can/may" means that it is at the Commanders discretion. If your Command is not following the "must" do items, you should see IG.

If they have been continuously denying you a board appearance, should they not have also imposed a Bar to Reenlistment? and after 5 years time in grade +/-, separation procedures. You best answer on something like this is likely to be from SFC (Join to see) , I have read most of what he answers and this NCO is on it. Reach out to him and tell him the entire story.

So once you hit your primary zone, your first line needs to send you to the promotion board, as long as you do not have any holds or bars preventing you from doing so, with respect to the AR. If your 1st line is not able to send you for whatever reason, he/she needs to counsel you with genuine and adequate reason as to why. Otherwise, that is unacceptable and can be regarded and taken up as an EO issue.

Two Letters in fact IG….Often leaders abuse power and continuously do it. The reason I provide you this as an answers instead of asking you more details you maybe willing to provide. An independent investigation can be conducted and provide you with better information on this issue possibly immediately correcting it and some
