5. OERs for all officers should arrive at CG PSC NLT 45 days after the end of
period (EOP) date to provide ample opportunity for review, corrections (when
required), validation, and entry into an officer’s official record. Rating chain
members are reminded to ensure that the correct forms (Revision 02/19) are
used. Current forms are found via OPM-3 Share Point Page: https://uscg.sharepoint-mil.us/sites/psc_spo/psc-opm/opm-3/SitePages/OPM-3.aspx, ensure you are using the correct form and revision. Overtyping previous forms may cause delay in validation. Send ADPL OER submissions to OPM-3 at HQS-SMB-PSC-OPM-OER@uscg.mil and IDPL/RCM OER submissions to RPM-1 at HQS-SMB-CGPSC-RPM-OER@uscg.mil. OERs for board or panel candidates should be marked URGENT: BOARD/PANEL CANDIDATE, include the ROOs last name, and be specific as to which Board/Panel in the subject line to ensure priority review (e.g. URGENT: BOARD CANDIDATE SMITH AB O2 PROMOTION).
6. Refs A and D contain OER procedures and best practices. Of note:
a. Ensigns going before the NOV24 ADPL LTJG Board will have an OER with EOP
30SEP24; rating chains shall ensure OER submissions reach PSC no later than
31OCT24. This is less than the normal 45-day submission timeframe.
b. Lieutenants (junior grade) above and in zone (ADPL and IDPL) must have a
current OER ending on or before 30JUN24 vice 31JUL24 to ensure enough time to
complete the validation process and enter the OER into officer records.
7. Reserve Officers on Active Duty for Operational Support (ADOS) or Involuntary
Active Duty must follow procedures outlined in Ref A.
8. Officers assigned to Duty Under Instruction (DUINS) who are in or above zone
for promotion shall follow the regular DUINS submission schedule. Ensigns
assigned to flight school for their first tour shall receive a DUINS OER with
an end of period date of 30 April. This OER is optional if a regular OER was
completed within the previous 184 days. All other DUINS OER submissions,
regardless of pay grade, are annual and end on 30 June (exception: detachment
of officer). The period of report for DUINS OER shall not exceed 18 months,
this includes ensign and lieutenant (junior grade) submissions.
9. Officers eligible for consideration by Boards and Panels should review their
Official Military Personnel File (OMPF) via iPERMS for accuracy. All documents that
require upload to a member's OMPF should contact their Servicing Personnel
Offices.
a. Employee Summary Sheet (ESS): The ESS is routinely used by Boards and Panels
and draws information from Direct Access. Officers should ensure correctness
and completeness by updating Direct Access well before the convening date of
the applicable Board or Panel.
b. Officer Specialty Management System (OSMS): Officer Specialty Codes (OSCs)
appear on an officer's ESS and in Direct Access. Ref E details the application
process for assigning/deleting OSCs. Important notes:
i. Legacy OSCs: OSCs earned prior to 2019 are not invalidated with the launch of
OSMS 2.0 and will still appear on both the ESS and in Direct Access.
ii. Specialty Considered Selection (SCS): Per Refs B and F, SCS may be
authorized by individual promotion boards; candidates should ensure their OSCs
are current and accurate.
iii. Submission requirements: Board or panel candidates should apply for OSCs at
least 90 days in advance of board/panel convening date and must include URGENT:
BOARD/PANEL CANDIDATE (with the specific board/panel) in the application email
subject line (e.g. URGENT: BOARD CANDIDATE SMITH AB O2 PROMOTION). Without the appropriate email subject line your application may not be prioritized. Applicants will receive an auto-reply to signal the application was received. Please be patient as application
processing time may take up to 60 days. Please note that Local Servicing
Personnel Offices are not authorized to assign OSCs to an officer's record.
iv. OSC Application forms:
1. Use the 5319A for Specialties
2. Use 5319B for Subspecialties
v. If applying for multiple OSCs, include them all in a single email. Even if one OSC depends on another, include both forms in the same email. Ensure applications are appropriately endorsed per Ref E.
vi. More information: Applications and questions should be directed to the OSMS
Program Manager at HQS-SMB-CGPSC-OPMOSMS@uscg.mil. All OSMS resources are
available on the OSMS SharePoint Page https://uscg.sharepoint-mil.us/sites/psc_spo/psc-opm/opm-3/SitePages/Officer-Specialty-Management-System-(OSMS).aspx. OPM-3 is not authorized to release copies of OERs or any documents contained in a member's Coast Guard Official Military Personnel File (OMPF). Members can check their record in iPERMS https://iperms.mymilrecord.uscg.mil/login/. OPM-3 and RPM-1 ensure OERs are validated and uploaded into an officer's record. Board/panel candidates should confirm their record is complete.
10. The Record of Professional Development (CG-4082): All officers are
recommended to submit an updated CG-4082 prior to a promotion board. When
submitting a new CG-4082, any previous CG-4082s will be removed from the OMPF.
If there is information from a previous CG-4082 that should be included in the
record, ensure that information is included on the new CG-4082. Guidance on
what is authorized on a CG-4082 can be found in Chapter 4.c of Ref G. Officers
should document all significant education, training, and qualifications on a CG
-4082, with an emphasis on items not captured on the member's ESS. More
information is available on the OPM-4 Share Point Page: https://uscg.sharepoint-mil.us/sites/psc_spo/psc-opm/opm-4/SitePages/OPM-4.aspx
