6. Eligibility Criteria. Candidates must meet the eligibility requirements
outlined in chapters 2 and 11 of reference (a) and this NAVADMIN prior to the
scheduled board convening date. All requirements must reflect in the EMF for
Active Duty and FTS or IMAPMIS for SELRES prior to the board
convening. Requirements achieved or posted to the record of the candidate
after the scheduled board convening date are considered late and will not
make a candidate eligible for the regularly scheduled board or entitle a
candidate to an enlisted special selection board. Refer to paragraph 616 of
reference (a) for E-8 and E-9 candidate validation procedures. Eligibility
requirements include:
a. The name of the candidate appears on the selection board eligibility
list in the correct competitive group on their profile sheet. Candidates
should register for e-mail notification for profile sheet updates via MNP at
https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/advancement-and-promotion/my-
advancement. Select My Profiles, then Advancement Profile Sheet-
Individuals. Candidates and commands share equal responsibility to ensure
the eligibility list is accurate. Because eligibility status can change
without direct notification, candidates should verify their profile sheet on
a continuous basis and commands must verify their ESVR weekly through the
projected board adjourn date.
b. In line with reference (a), the terminal eligibility date used to
compute the time in rate (TIR) is 1 October 2022. The TIR date for E-8
candidates must be on or before 1 September 2019. The TIR date for E-9
candidates must be on or before 1 July 2019.
c. High year tenure (HYT) waivers must be approved prior to the board
convening. HYT date or approved HYT waivers for the current paygrade must be
1 July 2022 or later. Candidates who will be at HYT on 1 July 2022 for the
next higher paygrade are ineligible for advancement, regardless of any
approved HYT waiver.
d. Commands must revalidate members whose disapproved or cancelled
retirement authorization is adjudicated prior to the selection board
convening date by sending an e-mail with the reason for revalidation to the
Selection Board Eligibility Branch (PERS-802). See paragraph 208 of
reference (a) for Fleet Reserve request impacts to eligibility.
e. Security clearance requirements. See paragraph 203 of reference
(a). Ratings requiring a security clearance are AC, AE, AG, AO, AT, AWF,
AWO, AWR, AWS, AWV, AZ, CTI, CTM, CTN, CTR, CTT, EOD, ET, FC, FCA, GM, HT,
IC, IS, IT, LN, MA, MC, MN, ND, OS, QM, SB, SO, STG AND YN, as well as all
nuclear and submarine ratings.
f. Rate specific and competitive group eligibility
requirements. Candidates must meet special requirements for certain ratings,
as outlined in paragraph 203 of reference (a). Commands must verify and
submit a message formatted e-mail to Naval Education and Training
Professional Development Center (NETPDC) N321 and PERS-802 requesting
invalidation of those selection board eligible candidates who no longer meet
the rate specific and competitive group qualifications by the scheduled board
convening date.
g. Non-nuclear submarine Sailors must be designated as either SS, SU OR
SQ in line with reference (b) as of the board convening date to be
eligible. Candidates designated as SG or SP are not eligible for
advancement.
h. While reference (c) required personnel who were selected for
E-8 in FY-17 and FY-18 to successfully graduate from the Senior Enlisted
Academy (SEA) to be eligible for E-9 board consideration, increased
throughput requirements made this unachievable. Until further notice, this
requirement is held in abeyance. Reference (c) will be revised with guidance
for SEA requirements in future selection boards.
7. Competitive Groups. The below listed ratings are separated into
competitive groups as applicable to the component of the candidate:
a. CTI (Active Duty E-8)
Group 1 - Middle East and North Africa
