Once you've completed BLC and it's updated in emilpo on your SRB - not when your 1059 is uploaded like they will tell you in the course - you are considered NCOES complete for the next rank. If that date is before the data is pulled for the month (you usually need to make sure everything is updated by the 8th), then you will be promoted the following month if you made points.

Thank you, I've had E6s and E7s tell me as long as I have the points for the month I graduate BLC I can be back dated a promotion for that graduation month with the supporting docs to S1. Just trying to get the correct info and it seems that this is the only place I can get a straight answer and a correct answer.

SGT(P) (Join to see) no, definitely not. If you look in the promotion reg you will see that HRC strictly forbids backdating promotions to E5 and E6. From now on, every single promotion you receive to a higher grade will be effective on the 1st of the month

Thank you, I did read that but like I said no one even my S1 doesn't seem to know the real answer. Just want to make sure that when I do get E5 that I'm not giving my soldiers in the same position the wrong answers.

Getting promoted was not something I overly concerned myself with. Satisfactorily complete your training, top block your evaluations, pass the PT test, meet time in grade, and look sharp are simple rules to follow to be considered for promotion. .
