I'll be in the secondary zone for SSG in June. Since I've only been a SGT for less then a year, I don't have any NCOER's. I'm being told you have to have NCOERs for promotion to SSG, but can't find anything stating that. And advice is appreciated.

How are you going to be in your secondary zone if you literally just promoted to SGT? Do you have 42 months TIS? You don’t need an NCOER, but you do require a waiver. Why are you so eager to promote to SSG if you just became a SGT? Learn how to be a leader before you go on to be a SSG who doesn’t know what to do

I believe that if you don't know the regs on getting promoted you are not ready to be promoted. Instead of going on like and asking questions use your chain of command. Ask your Personnel Actions Clerk or a trusted Senior NCO. Then come back and ask questions on a web site. You can go on line and get all of the regs about promotions and read them. The answers are there and it will make you a better NCO after you read and understand them.

I do not see how they could otherwise rate your performance as an NCO, and readiness for the next grade. While I am not sure, it would not make sense. Sorry for the hypothetical, but this does not seem right.

Point well stated.
His Leadership Is Failing Him if he doesnt have any NCOERS or documented progression as an NCO.

Part of the promotion packet that you fill out, if you have any, you are to include (at a min) the last 5 NCOERs. If you don't have any, then you need to include an MFR stating why there are no NCOERs in your promo packet. On the US Army Reserve Promotion Packet Composition , Elections and Preferences Checklist, Section B 3.E is where you will see that.
