I just commissioned into the USAR from ROTC. My CAC expired on the day I commissioned, but I don’t have orders to go to BOLC yet. I have read places that I need my BOLC orders in order to get a new CAC card, but have also read I can get a green IRR card until I get my orders to BOLC. With the IRR card, I won’t have access to enterprise though. Is there a way I can get a new CAC card to allow me access to enterprise without my orders? I do have a DA 71 if that helps any.

Here's the link to setup an appointment for a CAC replacement. As far as the system knows, you are a 2LT with an expired CAC. Just get a new one. Also, regarding BOLC, do you have a class date? I had to speak up and get my Reserve unit to schedule mine after I reported to them. It just wasn't automatic for me.

Yes, you need BOLC, don't wait around for it, but it's not a super rush to get it done. You have 18 months to finish it without it impacting your 1LT promotion.

Thank you for the link and the info! I will get on and look at that.

As for BOLC, I don’t have a date yet. I start in processing with my Reserve unit soon and my CO said first thing on the agenda is getting that date set up and taken care of. So, he is helping me to stay on top of that and make sure I get my date scheduled.

If you are commissioned, you should be in the system and can get a new CAC.

I would suggest contacting your unit and/or your local RAPIDS office.
