Promotion Boards. The Colonel through Major Promotion Boards will consider three categories of officers: Above-Zone, In-Zone and Below-Zone. The Captain Promotion Boards will consider two categories of officers: Above-Zone and In-Zone. There are no eligible officers in the Below-Zone. Officers defined as Reserve Active Status-List (RASL) in reference (b) are eligible for the boards if, on the convening date of their respective board, the officers have continuously performed service on either the RASL or the Active-Duty List (or a combination of both lists) for a period of one year. However, officers whose established date for removal from the RASL is within 90 days after the date the board is convened will not be considered by the board. Officers whose established release date from Active Duty in the AR Program, but not the RASL, is within 90 days after the date the board convenes will not be considered by the board. These officers will be considered by their respective Unrestricted Reserve Promotion Selection Boards. Officers whose Lineal Control Number (LCN) precedes the senior officer in-zone are defined as above-zone. Those above-zone officers who have not been previously considered are defined as "above-zone, not previously considered". Officers in this status are considered by the board to be in-zone. The senior and junior officer eligible in-zone and junior officer below-zone are as follows (Encl (1) of reference (b) applies): 2.a.

If an eligible officer is identified, a promotion selection board will be held. If any officers become eligible prior to the convening date, they will be notified in advance of the board convening date. 3. Merit-Based Promotion List Reorder. Section 14308 of title 10, U.S. Code, as amended by section 504 of the FY19 National Defense Authorization Act, allows the Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) to authorize promotion boards to reorder their recommended promotion list based on particular merit. Officers on the Unrestricted Colonel, Unrestricted Lieutenant Colonel, Active Reserve Colonel and Active Reserve Lieutenant Colonel promotion lists may be placed higher on the promotion list only if the officer receives the recommendation of at least a majority of the members of the board, unless the SECNAV establishes an alternative requirement. For officers recommended to be placed higher on a promotion list, the board shall recommend the order in which those officers should be placed on the list. 4. Continuation. Continuation Boards are no longer convened in conjunction with promotion boards for Reserve officers. For additional guidance contact the Reserve Affairs Management (RAM) Branch. 5. Departure from the Running Mate System. The Secretary of the Navy has approved a temporary departure from the running mate system for all ranks and competitive categories of reserve officer promotions. This departure will assist the Marine Corps in managing statutory grade strength for officers of all grades. Officers should carefully check their in-zone status, as the zones and opportunity may not mirror that of the active component. Additionally, reserve officers selected for promotion in FY22 will not be assigned a running mate. They will be promoted as announced in monthly promotion MARADMINS as vacancies allow. 6. Board Preparation Guidance. Officers are advised to review reference (a) for guidance regarding submission of information, auditing the Official Military Personnel File (OMPF) and Master Brief Sheet (MBS), and fitness reports prior to the convening date of the board. Officers are also reminded to review guidance in reference (a) regarding the Career Retirement Credit Report (CRCR) and Reserve Qualification Summary (RQS). Unrestricted officers are encouraged to submit a complete RQS as update material to the board to arrive not later than 10 calendar days (see paragraph 6.k.3.) before the date the board convenes. Officers may review reference (a) at the officer promotion homepage. The following guidance is provided: 6.a. Personal Responsibilities. Each officer is personally responsible for ensuring the accuracy and completeness of their OMPF and MBS before the board convening date. 6.b. Obtaining and Reviewing the OMPF. The primary, most expeditious means of obtaining and viewing the OMPF and MBS is through OMPF online via Marine Online (MOL). The MBS can also be obtained through the Manpower Management Records and Performance (MMRP) web site. Refer to reference (c) to determine what documents are appropriate for inclusion in the OMPF. 6.c. OMPF Document Submission Guidelines. Officers are personally responsible for correcting deficiencies, missing information, or illegible documents present in either the OMPF or MBS with CMC (MMRP-20). Per reference (c), ensure any material sent to CMC (MMRP-20) for filing in the OMPF contains full name, grade, and the Electronic Data Interchange Personal Identifier (EDIPI). Absence of the EDIPI may cause a delay in processing, resulting in material not being resident in the OMPF prior to the convening selection board. For corrections or updates to the administrative information section of the MBS contact your unit S-1 (general officers contact MMSL) or Installation Personnel Administration Center (IPAC). For correcting deficiencies, missing fitness reports, and date gaps to the performance evaluation summary section of the MBS contact (MMRP-30). Officers are reminded to verify any additions or deletions from their OMPF or MBS within the 12-month window to ensure the accuracy and completeness of their record. OMPF documents can be e-mailed as a pdf attachment or mailed to CMC (MMRP-20), however, inclusion in the OMPF is substantially faster if the documents are e-mailed. See paragraph 7.d (MMRP) for OMPF inquiries and document submission points of contact. 6.d. OMPF Document Submission Timelines. It is imperative that documents submitted to CMC (MMRP-20) for inclusion in the OMPF within 60 days of a selection board be conspicuously marked "contains documents for FY22 (appropriate board) selection board". With the exception of fitness reports, officers are highly encouraged to ensure all OMPF documents are forwarded to and received by CMC (MMRP-20) at least two weeks prior to the convening date of the selection board in order to allow processing time to the OMPF. Officers are advised that the OMPF and MBS are distributed to the boardroom at least one week before the board convening date. Board eligible records continue to be updated until the convening date of the board, however, officers are highly encouraged to submit all material no later than two weeks prior to the board for which they are eligible. 6.e. Career Advisors. The RAM-3 Career Advisory Cell provides Official Military Personnel File (OMPF) review and career counseling for all members of the Reserve Component (AR, SMCR, IMA, IRR). To request counseling services, send an email to "smb.manpower.cac@usmc.mil" with your name, EDIPI, contact information and service you are requesting. More information can be found by accessing www.manpower.usmc.mil. Click on "Reserve Marine", "Reserve Affairs (RA)", "Personnel Management (RAM)", "RAM-3", and "Career Counseling". 6.f. Fitness reports. Fitness reports are due to CMC (MMRP-30) by the timelines noted in reference (d). Reports mailed directly to the president of the board will not be added to an officer's OMPF. For fitness reports to become part of the OMPF, the reports must be submitted to CMC (MMRP-30). The Automated Performance Evaluation System (A-PES) is the primary means of submitting fitness reports, however, reporting officials may email pdf copies to the MMRP-32 organizational mailbox at smb.manpower.MMRP-32@usmc.mil. So long as the mailer's e-mail account can be confirmed as either the reporting senior's or reviewing officer's .mil email address. If mailing a paper version of a report to HQMC, it is imperative that the forwarding envelope be conspicuously marked "contains FITREPs for FY22 (appropriate board) selection board". Timely submission of fitness reports is critical for board eligible members as CMC (MMRP-30) will need time to review reports for accuracy and compliance. Commanders are ultimately responsible for the timely submission of fitness reports to (CMC) MMRP-30 and ensuring that all fitness report timelines noted in reference (d) are adhered to. 6.f.1. Date gaps must be corrected IAW chapter 8 and appendix F of reference (d). If missing reports are less than one year old, a reconstructed original is required. Copies of the completed fitness reports over one year old must have all pages certified as true copies by either one of the reporting officials (RS/RO). For completion and submission of reports that are over one year old it is preferable that the original reviewing officer complete the report, however, CMC (MMRP-30) may act as the reviewing officer on reports that are not adverse on a case-by-case basis. 6.f.2. Officers are reminded that requests for administrative changes to their fitness report records may take up to 30 days to complete. Due diligence for records correction timeliness rests solely on the officer making the request. 6.g. Reference (e) discusses the waiver of the annual Physical Fitness Test (PFT) requirement for the CY 2020 semi-annual period. Marines are not authorized to conduct a PFT for score unless in an exception to policy as defined in paragraph 5 of reference (e). Marines who have conducted a PFT in 2020 prior to the publishing of reference (e) will retain their score. Marines may conduct a PFT to update their score up to 90 days following removal of the restrictions published in reference (e). Any Marine that failed the PFT in CY 2019 will be required to take the PFT within this period. All officers are to ensure that their PFT score is appropriately entered into MCTIMS, as per reference (e), no later than the day prior to the board convene date. 6.h. Communication with the Board. Each officer may communicate with the president of the board. Per reference (f), an officer eligible for consideration by a selection board convened, under section 14101 of title 10, U.S. Code, as amended by FY19 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), may send a written communication to the board, to arrive not later than 10 calendar days before the date the board convenes. The information in this database is then up-loaded to the internet so that officers can personally confirm receipt of the material via the officer promotion homepage. In addition, do not send duplicate copies of update material. Doing so causes CMC (MMPR-1) to again process the material and for the board to review duplicate copies of the material submitted. 6.i. Forwarding Communications to the Board. Officers may submit communications via U.S. Mail, next-day packages, or fax. U.S. Mail is not delivered directly to Harry Lee Hall. Therefore, anticipate a 2 to 3 day lag time for further delivery to Harry Lee Hall. Commercial next-day carriers deliver directly to Harry Lee Hall, excluding weekends and holidays. Officers with the capability to scan their documents may send the scanned documents via e-mail directly to the organizational mailbox: officerpromotions@usmc.mil. Ensure the e-mail subject line reads "update material for the FY22 USMCR (appropriate grade) promotion selection board". 6.k. Update Material. Officers may submit to the board any written information, to include written material they deem important for consideration. OMPF materials sent directly to the Board President will not become part of an officer's OMPF. Although officers may submit any material as update material, officers should contact CMC (MMRP-30) before submitting Fitness Reports as Update Material and CMC (MMRP-20) for any other OMPF materials. This process will ensure an officer's OMPF is appropriately updated. The following guidelines apply regardless of the means by which an officer submits material, e.g., mail, fax, e-mail, etc.: 6.k.1. Update material must be in writing and submitted under cover letter with the update material as enclosures (a sample cover letter is available at the officer promotion homepage), 6.k.2. The cover letter must be addressed to President, FY22 USMCR (appropriate grade/component) Promotion Selection Board (see paragraph 6a for complete address), 6.k.3. Update material must be from the eligible officer, and the officer must physically sign the cover letter. Digital signatures are authorized on e-mail submissions. Material submitted that is not in writing, submitted without a signed cover letter, or received later than 10 calendar days before the date the board convenes as noted below, will not be submitted to the board: Selection To Component Convening Date Due Date Col, LtCol, and Maj AR 6 Oct 20 25 Sep 20 Col Reserve 6 Oct 20 25 Sep 20 LtCol Reserve 12 Jan 21 1 Jan 21 Maj Reserve 5 Jan 21 25 Dec 20 Capt Reserve/AR 3 Feb 21 23 Jan 21 6.l. Update Material Receipt Verification. Update material sent via USMC e-mail will receive an e-mail confirmation. The e-mail confirmation receipt is the official notification that CMC (MMPR-1) has received your update material, and will be provided to the president of your board. No further action is required on the officer's part. 6.m. Classified Reports. Eligible officers whose records contain classified reports should notify CMC, Officer Promotion Section, (MMPR-1) as soon as possible. Notification should include the Marines' full name, EDIPI, grade, occasion, and dates of the report(s). CMC (MMPR-1) will confirm the existence of the report(s) and ensure its consideration by the board. 6.n. Request for non-selection. Officers eligible for promotion who plan to retire may write to the president of the board requesting they not be selected for promotion. 6.o. Civilian education. All officers must ensure their civilian education is accurately reflected in the Marine Corps Total Force System (MCTFS). 6.p. Post-board information and guidance. Officers may view the approval progress of their board from the officer promotion homepage. When the results of a field grade board are authorized to be released, a personal for (P-4) email will be forwarded to all Marine Corps general officers and certain colonels. The P-4 affords the recipients an opportunity to ensure each select and in-zone non-select are advised of their promotion status. The P-4 includes work phone numbers that are obtained from MCTFS. All officers are required to ensure their contact data is correct in MOL and MCTFS and to verify the accuracy of their MCC, unit, billet, phone, and e-mail information. Accurate, current contact information will facilitate more efficient notification. Approximately five (5) working days after a P-4 is released, SECNAV will release the ALNAV announcing the names of the officers selected by the board. Captain and CWO board results will be announced via ALNAV when those board reports are approved by SECDEF. 7. Addresses, Points Of Contact, And Internet Information: 7.a.
