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?

Well from the National Guard side of things you can be eligible for promotion for ever, but until a position opens up your staying right where you are regardless if you like it or not. On top of that we have to be recognized by two different sources, the state recognizes us and then it has to go up to FED REC to become official and why it takes so long, FED REC makes a priority to promote active duty over reserve, so we get the shit end of the process regardless. Honestly the military needs to do a complete overhaul of the promotion board process. When things stop moving smoothly and in a timely manner, problems need to be solved and processes need to be updated, this has been going on for years, so what they are waiting for I don't know.

All true statements. Just curious though, are you commenting to someone else's comment, or the original 4 year old post?

2LT (Join to see) - It's an out of office response from someone at NGB. There has been so much attention to this process and questions, the team there has this set up for people to get some answers. If you go to your military email, search the global address for Moore, Ricci E, and select her email. DON'T hit send, but wait a second and an out of office reply will appear at the top of your email. Hover your mouse over it for a couple seconds and the full message will appear. This shows the status for FEDREC scrolls. As of today, the message reads the same and says the Senate is not in session until 6 Jan. So don't expect any further updates until at least the second week in JAN.

Looks like it wont apply if "The delay is not the result of a promotion review based on adverse information pertaining to an officer whose name appears on the promotion appointment scroll discovered through exemplary conduct screening." which is the cause of a lot of delays.

Is there a flow chart of what office is where in this whole process? Just curious because last update had U12-19 at OTJAG and now it's at Adverse Screening. I was told OTJAG was after Adverse Screening. Is there a reason why a scroll would go back a level?

Money and the slot movement process is complicated. I was appointed as a reserve warrant officer in 1975 and I was a regular army NCO. The army does strange things. Do they learn from their mistakes? Sometimes. Not going after Russia after WW2. WMD? Iraq? Iran?

No updates on PL09-19, and I doubt we'll see any the rest of this week. I find it humorously/frustratingly ironic that the scroll has spent nearly double the time at the last step (OSD) than it did at the other steps. The only thing I can think of is that the scroll has been signed and there's just a lag in publishing the orders.

Also, my status screen on G1 net has switched from yellow to white. Not sure if that has any significance.

What scroll are you?
Not everyone has access to iperms on a daily basis. If we can identify who is on what scroll it may give others on the same scroll a heads up to check their records. Sometimes a scroll will publish and we won't even know due to time delays, etc

I am on scroll P06-19, which was at Adverse Action Screening last week. This week I looked and got this "Awaiting Dir of Mil Pers Mgmt; P06-19; 0 Days in DoD Approval cycle" which I thought was the first step. Did we get sent to the back of the line?

No. Adverse Action is the first step from what I know. Then DMPM. I found this link fairly useful in understanding the process. Granted it says WO for the file, the process is essentially the same from what I understand.

CW2 Barry Bertram - Chief: I've found no rhyme or reason as to gauging the timeline for packets. I've seen packets leapfrog other packets. The timeline, in my opinion, is nothing but a best estimate.

Chief: By "packet went up in October", do you mean from your unit to your state? The timeline doesn't start until the state promotion is sent to NGB for Federal Recognition. For myself, my state promotion to Major was in late November, but that wasn't sent to NGB until mid January. They're trying to get their part through in 90-120 days, but again that only starts once NGB gets it from the State. Granted as a Chaplain, this is my first time going through this process and it's anything, but straightforward.

Hi all. One of the biggest issues with DPROS is that it is currently inaccurate. Please refer to other posts that show more accurate status updates for your packet

My current packet took nearly three months for the Fed Rec clock to start running. I was state promoted at the end of August. The days-in-scroll numbers didn't start moving until early December. U01-19
