Where is my FEDREC Scroll in the DOD Process?
Best of luck to y'all!
Recommendation from previous comments-
STOP! Please read: If you are here, you want info on how long scrolls are taking or to see the status of your scroll. Help the next person by posting your experience. Once your orders are published, come back and make a new response to the original post with your scroll number, date your FEDREC was sent to NGB and the date your orders published.
If we get more people to post, the data gets more reliable and useful. You can then see if your scroll is an outlier and you can raise a flag with your command.
I'm sure people come by and read these posts without adding to the discord. Join the community and help the next person!
If you agree, VOTE THIS UP so it's one of the first responses people see when they stumble in.
Based on my inquiry through my OPM to NGB to backdate my pending date of rank to the date my FEDREC packet was received by NGB per the new USC 10 Chapter 1405 §14308, NGB will create a new Personnel Policy Operational Memorandum (PPOM) to further define what IS the date NGB recognizes the receipt of a FEDREC packet. Is it the date the packet was sent from the state? Is it the date someone gets around to reviewing the documents to see if they are all there and error free? We will see.
This is important since this is how they will continue to determine backdates for all promotions starting 1 JAN 2024. This is still just an option that the Secretary of the Army has for all promotions that occurred in 2023. Since the new law allows the Secretary to backdate all the way to when NGB received the packet, I don't see any reason why they wouldn't. I hesitate in asking others to request an ABCMR for their promotions in 2023. Technically anyone can ask, but I'm not sure the flood gates should be opened until they have more defined policy. It's a long process to change date of rank. I'm told 6 months is typical, so if you start the process, have realistic expectations.
I hope this is good and doesn't blow up in my face. Sorry in advance if this makes things worse. You're welcome for being the first to try. I'll update when I get anything new.

New law to reform Guard officer promotion process, federal recognition
Soon Guard officers will receive backpay when their promotions are delayed.
I bet the more of us that file ABCMRs, the more pressure it will put on them. Maybe I'll even write my congressman, try to get a little pressure that way. Both of my non-automatic promotions (CPT and MAJ) have been absolutely ridiculous and have cost my family tens of thousands of dollars (and counting). I was "promoted" into an O3 slot for a year-long deployment, but didn't see DOR until 5 months after returning home. Missed out on all that tax-free combat pay. This is just stupid.

Good luck everyone!

Why is there such a long wait for reserve component officer and warrant federal...
Can anyone tell me why the process takes so long for RC officer/warrant promotions to run through the FedRec cycle? I'm an ARNG officer and I've had my state promotion orders for CPT since the middle of April. I've been tracking my packet on the ARNG-G1 website and it was awaiting addition to a scroll until a month ago and last week the scroll was ready to start the approval DoD cycle. Thoughts?

What are the detailed Federal Recognition Process (O4 promotion) steps? | RallyPoint
Federal Recognition question...I'm an AGR with the National Guard. I was DA Select to O4 last year and finally have a control grade and promotion orders in my state. My FedRec is getting processed and I'm curious about the steps it must pass through. No one here seems to really have a feel for where it's at, let alone how long it could take. Does anyone have a list of the steps each packet goes through? I've seen the common trackers attached...
