GENTEXT/REMARKS/1.  This MARADMIN announces an update to the
Activation Deferment Policy for Marines transitioning from the AC to
the Selected Marine Corps Reserve (SMCR).
2.  When AC Marines transition to the RC as part of the continuum of
service, it is imperative that they adjust and balance the demands
of their new civilian career, RC service, and family
responsibilities.  Enabling a reasonable transition period from the
AC to the RC supports Marines and their families in the transition
to civilian life, fosters predictability, and encourages long-term
service in the SMCR.
3.  Program Guidance
    a.  All Marines transitioning from the AC (comp code 11) to the
SMCR (comp code KA) may defer involuntary activations under the
12304b authority for up to 12 months from their end of active service
(EAS) from the AC, regardless of current dwell status or last duty
station.
    b.  Marines in the Individual Mobilization Augmentee (IMA)
Program or the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) are not eligible for
activation deferment.
    c.  Marines must remain in good standing in the SMCR in
accordance with reference (b).  Failure to fulfill SMCR requirements
will result in the termination of deferment status.
    d.  Marines may volunteer for activation or waive deferment at
any time during the deferment period.
    e.  This policy is effective immediately.  Each Marine’s
12-month activation deferment eligibility window begins, or began,
the date of EAS from the AC (comp code 11).
4.  Administrative Guidance
    a.  Individual Marines.  Effective immediately, eligible Marines
may elect involuntary activation deferment from their SMCR unit upon
affiliation.
    b.  SMCR Unit Administrative Sections.  Upon eligible Marines’
deferment election, enter Unit Diary Type Transaction Code (TTC)
099-001, the appropriate mobilization status code, and the
Mobilization Elective Deferment Algorithm (MOBEDA) date as 12 months
from the Marine’s EAS from the AC.
5.  MARADMIN 475/19 is hereby cancelled.
6.  Questions pertaining to SMCR unit administration/deferment
reporting should be directed to MARFORRES G-1 Manpower OMB:
MFR_MANPOWER@USMC.MIL or by calling 504-697-7188/7181.
7.  Release authorized by Major General John F. Kelliher III,
Director, Reserve Affairs Division.//
