to ensure the Navy remains fully manned and operationally ready. 
References (a) and (b) are hereby updated for enlisted personnel. 
For those who have decided to separate, please review reference (c) 
for additional career progression opportunities in the Navys 
Selected Reserves.  Navy encourages all qualified Sailors to stay 
Navy.  See your career counselor for more information.  While we 
strive to retain all qualified Sailors, commanding officers should 
continue to exercise their obligation to document performance and 
adjust their recommendation for retention, accordingly. 
 
2.  Sailors are encouraged to look for selective reenlistment bonus 
(SRB) updates frequently to take advantage of the opportunities 
published on the Navy’s SRB website at: 
https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/References/Pay-Benefits/N130D/. 
Please keep in mind SRB levels may be adjusted up or down depending 
on rating health. 
 
3.  Early Separation Cancellation.  Effective immediately, all 
enlisted early out programs and new time in grade requirement 
waivers are hereby cancelled.  Service commitments such as 
enlistment contracts, service obligations for accepting permanent 
change of station orders, advancements, bonuses, training, etc., 
will be fulfilled.  Service members experiencing difficulty in 
fulfilling obligated service requirements are encouraged to work 
with their chain of command and respective detailers to examine 
available alternatives to complete their obligation. 
    a.  Commanding officers still retain the 90-day early out 
authority for policy outlined in references (d) and (e). 
    b.  Service members previously granted approval will not be

4.  Delaying separation or retirement.  The Navy is accepting

is 31 August 2022. 
    a. Service members with an approved separation or retirement 
date on or before 31 March 2023 are eligible to submit a request to 
their detailer to have their separation or retirement date delayed 
and projected rotation date (PRD) extended, up to 30 September 2023, 
if the billet they are in upon submission of the request will be 
gapped upon their departure.  Requests to extend beyond 30 September 
2023 will be considered on a case by case basis for expected gaps in 
operational billets. 
    b.  All Service members interested in extending retirements are 
invited to apply to their PERS-40 detailer to have their PRD 
extended no later than 90 days prior to the start of their 
previously requested terminal leave date or retirement date, 
(whichever comes first), via their chain of command utilizing their 
previously submitted Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System 
(NSIPS) voluntary retirement request.  For example, if the Service 
members terminal leave date starts on 8 May 2023, then the request 
will have to be submitted on or before 7 February 2023 into NSIPS. 
NOTE:  A form 1306/7 Electronic Personnel Action request (ePAR) is 
not required for previously submitted or approved retirements. 
Priority for approval will be given to those Service members filling 
sea duty and critical billets that would otherwise be gapped. 
    c.  In line with reference (f), Service members who are 
separating or retiring due to high year tenure (HYT) may apply for a 
HYT waiver of their current HYT gate.  HYT waivers will be 
considered for up to an additional 12 months for enlisted Sailors 
filling critical operational billets both at sea and shore that 
would otherwise be gapped, while maintaining the service members 
eligibility for advancement.  Those service members will submit a 
command-endorsed ePAR to MyNavy Career Center (MNCC) via MyNavy 
Portal or by emailing the ePAR request directly to 
askmncc@navy.mil.  Requests will be approved on a case by case 
basis. 
    d.  Service members with an approved separation or retirement 
date that are in a sea duty billet, will remain on sea duty if their 
request for voluntary extension is approved. 
        (1) Sailors with an approved separation or retirement date 
who are in billets that are eligible for Sea Duty Incentive Pay 
(SDIP), and who are approved for a voluntary extension that exceeds 
their prescribed sea tour by at least 12 months, will receive SDIP. 
        (2) Exceptions to the timeline to request SDIP and to the 
length of extension for SDIP will be granted by Enlisted 
Distribution Division (PERS-40) to accommodate these requests.  The 
latest SDIP eligibility chart can be found at 
https://www.mynavyhr.navy.mil/References/Pay-Benefits/SDIP/.   
This chart is updated periodically so check for recent additions.  For 
Service members who are in a SDIP eligible billet, an ePAR should be 
submitted to MNCC at askmncc@navy.mil and their detailer. 
        (3) Service members approved for extension under this policy 
remain eligible to participate in the Navy wide advancement exam, or 
may be considered for advancement determination by a selection board 
if eligible, as long as they meet terminal eligibility date 
requirements set forth in reference (g). 
    c.  While all service members are encouraged to apply, the 
following will not be considered:
