1. Commanding Officers/Officers exercising administrative control may
promote the personnel listed below, effective on the dates indicated.
2. Members are categorized by the promotion list on which they were
selected. Prior to promotion, Commanding Officers must ensure
compliance with Para 3.A.12 of Ref A for ADPL promotions to O-2
through O-6, Para 3.B.6 of Ref A for ADPL promotions to Chief Warrant
Officer, and Para 7.A.10 of Ref B for IDPL promotions. Commanding
Officers must also ensure compliance with the provisions of Ref C,
unless an exemption has been granted. If promotion is delayed,
Commanding Officers must notify PSC (OPM-1) or (RPM), PPC, and SPO
prior to the authorized promotion date.
3. If a promotion is delayed under these provisions, further
proceedings under Chapter 3 of Ref A or Chapter 7 of Ref B will
depend upon the circumstances leading to the delay. When an officer
whose promotion has been delayed subsequently meets the standards for
promotion, Commanding Officers should contact PSC (OPM-1) or (RPM)
and request authority to promote the officer. PSC (OPM-1) or (RPM)
will authorize promotion with a date of rank at the time the officer
would have been promoted had the promotion not been delayed. For IDPL
officers, pay and allowances of the grade to which promoted are
authorized from the effective date of the appointment, not the date
of rank.
4. Acceptance of promotion obligates officers to serve two years time
in grade (TIG) prior to voluntary retirement. The TIG requirement
does not apply to an officer resigning their commission.
5. The following promotions are authorized:

8. Officers promoted to the grade of Commander or below during a
reporting period must apply the submission criteria for the grade to
which promoted to determine when their next OER is due. See Chapter
5.E of Ref B for details. Promotion OERs are required for promotion
to Captain only if more than 184 days have elapsed since their
previous OER submission.

10. LT promotions normally occur 30 months from the LTJG date of
rank. LTJG promotions normally occur 18 months from the ENS date of
rank. IAW 14 USC 3747, all IDPL officers will be promoted on the same
date as their running mate. Law limits the number of LCDR and above
promotions, and the number is authorized each year by the Commandant.
Each controlled grade can only comprise a certain percentage of the
total officer corps. Even if the Coast Guard has vacant billets in a
controlled-grade, we can only promote officers until we reach our
authorized cap. The authorized number of officers in each controlled
grade is determined every year in May after the Academy class
graduates and the Coast Guard officer corps is at its largest.
Promotion numbers for controlled grades are significantly larger
during the summer months due to the higher number of officer
separations during these months.

(202)795-6517. POC for Regular Officers is LT Sara Pepin, PSC
(OPM-1E)(202)795-6443.
