RMKS/1. THIS NAVADMIN ANNOUNCES REVISED SELECTIVE REENLISTMENT BONUS
(SRB) AWARD LEVELS FOR ACTIVE COMPONENT AND RESERVE COMPONENT FULL TIME
SUPPORT (FTS) AND SUPERSEDES REF A. CONTINGENT UPON RECEIPT OF
CONGRESSIONAL DEFENSE APPROPRIATIONS FOR FY11 OR ENACTMENT OF A
CONTINUING RESOLUTION AUTHORITY, LEVELS LISTED IN PARA 4 BELOW ARE
EFFECTIVE AS OF 1 OCTOBER 2010 AND PRECERTIFICATION REQUESTS WILL BE
ACCEPTED 35-120 DAYS PRIOR TO THE DESIRED REENLISTMENT DATE. HOWEVER,
PERS-811 WILL NOT RELEASE SRB REENLISTMENT PRECERTIFICATION MESSAGES
UNTIL 1 OCTOBER 2010 OR WHEN FY11 FUNDING IS MADE AVAILABLE, WHICHEVER
IS LATER.
2. WHILE THE SRB PROGRAM CONTINUES TO BE THE NAVY'S PRIMARY MONETARY
INCENTIVE TO ENCOURAGE SAILORS WITH CRITICAL SKILLS AND VALUABLE
EXPERIENCE TO STAY NAVY, IT IS INCUMBENT UPON THE NAVY TO REMAIN WITHIN
CONGRESSIONALLY-AUTHORIZED FUNDING LIMITS. ADDITIONALLY, SRB IS USED
AS A FORCE SHAPING AND STABILIZATION TOOL TO HELP MINIMIZE OVER/UNDER-
EXECUTION OF CRITICAL SKILL RETENTION GOALS. THEREFORE, AS
REENLISTMENT GOALS FOR PARTICULAR SKILLS ARE ACHIEVED, SRB AWARD LEVELS
FOR THOSE SKILLS WILL BE REMOVED FROM THE PLAN, BUT NO EARLIER THAN 30
DAYS FOLLOWING THE RELEASE OF THIS NAVADMIN. NAVADMINS WILL BE
RELEASED AS SKILLS ARE REMOVED FROM THE PLAN; HOWEVER, THIS NAVADMIN
CONSTITUTES THE 30-DAY NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENT SET BY DEPARTMENT OF
DEFENSE (DOD) POLICY FOR ANY SKILL SUBSEQUENTLY REMOVED FROM THE
PROGRAM. SAILORS ARE ENCOURAGED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SRB AS SOON AS
ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS HAVE BEEN MET ACCORDING TO THIS NAVADMIN AND
REFS B AND C.
3. ALL SRB SKILLS FOR FY11 HAVE BEEN EVALUATED AND PLACED IN ONE OF
THREE TIERS. VARYING AWARD LEVELS AND EARLY REENLISTMENT OPPORTUNITIES
HAVE BEEN PROVIDED FOR EACH TIER. SAILORS SERVING IN TIER ONE SKILLS,
AS WELL AS THE EXCEPTIONS OUTLINED IN PARA 12.A OF REF B AND PARA 4 OF
REF C, ARE ELIGIBLE TO REENLIST EARLY ANY TIME WITHIN THE FISCAL YEAR
OF THEIR END OF ACTIVE OBLIGATED SERVICE (EAOS). NUCLEAR SAILORS MAY
STILL CROSS FISCAL YEAR BOUNDARIES. SAILORS SERVING IN TIER TWO OR
TIER THREE SKILLS WHO RECEIVED AN EARLY PROMOTE (EP) ON THEIR MOST
RECENT REGULAR PERIODIC EVALUATION REPORT MAY ALSO REENLIST ANY TIME
WITHIN THE FISCAL YEAR PRIOR TO THEIR EAOS (SEE PARA
6 FOR MORE DETAILS AND GUIDELINES). ALL OTHER SAILORS IN TIER TWO AND
TIER THREE SKILLS MAY REENLIST UP TO 90 DAYS IN ADVANCE OF THEIR EAOS,
AS DIRECTED IN REF C. ALL SAILORS, REGARDLESS OF SKILL TIER, MUST MEET
ALL ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA UNDER PARA 9 AND MUST SUBMIT PRECERTIFICATION
REQUESTS TO NAVY PERSONNEL COMMAND (NAVPERSCOM (PERS-811)) NO LATER
THAN 35 DAYS IN ADVANCE OF THE REQUESTED REENLISTMENT DATE.

5. NOTES
(1) THE SRB FOR THIS RATING NAVY ENLISTED CLASSIFICATION (NEC)
IS TIED TO AN INCUMBENT BILLET OR TO ORDERS NEGOTIATED FOR THE NEXT
BILLET. COMMANDS MUST VERIFY THE MEMBER IS CURRENTLY IN, OR HAS ORDERS
TO, A BILLET REQUIRING THIS NEC AND ANNOTATE THIS VERIFICATION IN THE
COMMENTS SECTION OF THE PRECERT REQUEST, IF REENLISTMENT FOR AN SRB IS
INTENDED TO FILL NAVY REQUIREMENTS FOR SPECIFIC SKILL SETS TIED TO
THESE BILLETS.
(2) AN SRB APPROVAL FOR ALL CT, IS, AND IT RATINGS WILL BE
CONTINGENT UPON MEMBER HAVING A CURRENT SINGLE SCOPE BACKGROUND
INVESTIGATION (SSBI), AN ACTIVE SSBI OR RECENT SUBMISSION OF AN SSBI
PACKAGE. COMMANDS MUST VERIFY THE MEMBER HAS A CURRENT SSBI, ACTIVE
SSBI, OR HAS SUBMITTED A SSBI PACKAGE AND MAKE NOTE OF THIS IN THE
COMMENTS SECTION OF THE PRECERT REQUEST.
(3) REENLISTMENT COMPENSATION FOR ZONE C NUCLEAR TRAINED
PERSONNEL HOLDING A NUCLEAR SUPERVISOR NEC SHALL BE PROVIDED UNDER THE
ENLISTED SUPERVISOR RETENTION PAY PROGRAM (ESRP), PER REF D. NECS 3359
AND 3389 ARE INACTIVE NECS. MEMBERS HOLDING THESE NECS MAY REENLIST AT
THE AWARD LEVEL SPECIFIED FOR THE LAST ACTIVE NEC HELD.
(4) LETTERS APPEARING WITH AN NEC ARE FOR ADMINISTRATIVE USE
ONLY.
(5) SUBSURFACE OR SURFACE DESIGNATION DOES NOT MEAN AN
INDIVIDUAL MUST BE SUBSURFACE OR ENLISTED SURFACE WARFARE SPECIALIST
QUALIFIED, BUT INDICATES THE COMPONENT OF THE RATING IN WHICH THEY CAN
REASONABLY BE EXPECTED TO SERVE. TRAINING, QUALIFICATIONS, AND
PREVIOUS OR PROJECTED DUTY ASSIGNMENTS AT SEA WILL INDICATE THE
APPROPRIATE RATING COMPONENT. WHEN USING THE FORCE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
(FORMAN) AND THE OFFICER PERSONNEL INFORMATION SYSTEM (OPINS) TO INPUT
A SRB PRECERT REQUEST, USE THE RATING (WITH APPROPRIATE SUFFIX
DESIGNATION)/NEC AS SPECIFIED IN THIS NAVADMIN.
FOR EXAMPLE, SURFACE ELECTRONICS TECHNICIAN WITH NO NEC WOULD SUBMIT
"ETSW" ON PRECERT FOR RATING.
(6) SUBSURFACE NECS. SUBSURFACE ELECTRONICS TECHNICIAN 14XXA
IDENTIFIES ALL SUBSURFACE ELECTRONICS TECHNICIAN COMMUNICATIONS SAILORS
WHO HOLD NECS BEGINNING WITH 14.
SUBSURFACE ELECTRONICS TECHNICIAN NAVIGATION 14XXB IDENTIFIES
SUBSURFACE ELECTRONICS TECHNICIAN NAVIGATION SAILORS AND INCLUDES ALL
SUBSURFACE ELECTRONICS TECHNICIAN NAVIGATION NECS BEGINNING WITH 14.
(7) MEMBERS HOLDING NEC 3913 MAY REENLIST AT THE AWARD LEVEL
SPECIFIED FOR NEC 3912.
(8) RATINGS ELIGIBLE FOR NEC 0304 ARE: AWO, ET, QM, AND OS.
(9) DUE TO SIGNIFICANT NAVY ALIGNMENT AND CHANGES ASSOCIATED
WITH ACTIVE RESERVE INTEGRATION, FTS SRB REENLISTMENTS ARE LIMITED TO A
FOUR-YEAR TERM, PROVIDED A MEMBER REENLISTS INTO THE NEXT ZONE, AS
REQUIRED BY REFS B AND E. ADDITIONALLY, AN FTS SAILOR MAY REENLIST AND
RECEIVE ONLY ONE SRB PER ZONE (ZONE A, ZONE B, AND ZONE C) DURING A
CAREER.
THIS FTS SRB AWARD PLAN APPLIES TO RESERVE MEMBERS OF THE FTS PROGRAM;
IT DOES NOT APPLY TO FTS CANVASSER RECRUITERS.
(10) ONE OF THE FOLLOWING TYPE CODES SHALL BE USED WHEN
SUBMITTING THE SRB
PRECERT: CODE 1RR, IMMEDIATE REENLISTMENT FOR FULL TIME SUPPORT SRB;
CODE 1RB, BROKEN SERVICE REENLISTMENT FOR FULL TIME SUPPORT SRB; OR
CODE 1RC, OBLISERV TO TRAIN AND REENLIST FOR FULL TIME SUPPORT.
(11) NEC 8201, 8278, 8289 ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THIS FTS SRB.
6. EARLY REENLISTMENT OPPORTUNITY FOR EP SAILORS SERVING IN TIER TWO
OR TIER THREE SRB SKILLS. SAILORS SERVING IN TIER TWO OR TIER THREE
SRB SKILLS WHO RECEIVED AN EP IN BLOCK 45 OF THEIR MOST RECENT REGULAR
PERIODIC EVALUATION OR FITNESS REPORT WILL BE ALLOWED TO REENLIST EARLY
ANY TIME WITHIN THE FISCAL YEAR OF THEIR EAOS. NO TRANSFER,
CONCURRENT, OR SPECIAL EVALUATIONS WILL APPLY. SAILORS ADVANCED WITHIN
THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THEIR EAOS WILL BE ALLOWED TO SUBSTITUTE THE
LAST REGULAR PERIODIC EVALUATION OR FITNESS REPORT IN THEIR PREVIOUS
PAYGRADE. PERSONNEL MUST FAX OR EMAIL A SIGNED COPY OF THE EVALUATION
TO NAVPERSCOM (PERS-811) ONCE THEIR PRECERT HAS BEEN SUBMITTED.
THIS REQUIREMENT IS ONLY FOR THOSE THAT FALL UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF
THIS PARAGRAPH.
7. THE FOLLOWING GUIDANCE IS PROVIDED ON NEC-SPECIFIC SRB AND LATERAL
CONVERSIONS.
ACCEPTANCE OF A NEC-SPECIFIC SRB CONTRACT INDICATES AN AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE SAILOR AND THE NAVY TO UTILIZE SKILLS ATTRIBUTED TO THE NEC
DURING THE SAILOR'S ENLISTMENT TO MEET FLEET READINESS REQUIREMENTS.
IN SUBSEQUENT TOURS, A SAILOR MUST BE WILLING TO BE DETAILED DURING THE
NORMAL PROJECTED ROTATION DATE WINDOW TO AN AVAILABLE BILLET WITHIN THE
SRB CONTRACTED NEC, CONSISTENT WITH SEA-SHORE FLOW REQUIREMENTS.
LATERAL CONVERSIONS MUST FOLLOW REF B, PARA 12.D. LATERAL CONVERSION
REQUESTS WILL NOT BE PROCESSED MORE THAN NINE MONTHS BEFORE THE EAOS.
CONVERSIONS TO A RATE WITH A LOWER AWARD LEVEL WILL NOT BE APPROVED.
PERSONNEL IN A "CLOSED-LOOP" NEC CAN REENLIST BY THE NEC ONLY.
8. PERFORM-TO-SERVE (PTS) REQUIREMENTS. THE SRB REQUEST FOR A SAILOR
WHO REQUIRES PTS APPROVAL MUST BE SUBMITTED AFTER THE SAILOR HAS BEEN
OFFICIALLY NOTIFIED OF PTS APPROVAL.
9. REENLISTMENT PROCEDURES. SAILORS MAY REQUEST TO REENLIST EARLY FOR
SRB SO LONG AS THEIR EAOS IS WITHIN THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR AND IS NOT
LATER THAN 90 DAYS FROM THE REQUESTED DATE OF REENLISTMENT. SEE PARA 6
OF THIS NAVADMIN; REF B, PARA 12.A; AND REF C, PARA 4 FOR EXCEPTIONS TO
THIS POLICY. OTHER POLICIES AND ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES IN REFS A
AND B AND THE DEFENSE JOINT MILITARY PAY SYSTEM (DJMS) PROCEDURES
TRAINING GUIDE REMAIN IN EFFECT.
10. OBLIGATED SERVICE TO TRAIN (OTT) AND THEN REENLIST. SEE REF B,
PARA 12.E., FOR OTT GUIDANCE. REQUESTS ARE TO BE SUBMITTED TO
NAVPERSCOM (PERS-811) VIA NAVPERS 1306/7, ENLISTED PERSONNEL ACTION
REQUEST. A COPY OF THE AUTHORIZATION MESSAGE SHOULD BE RETAINED BY THE
SAILOR UNTIL THE SRB REENLISTMENT ON GRADUATION DAY FROM THE COURSE OF
INSTRUCTION. USE CODE 1CC (1RC FOR FTS) FOR OTT SRB REQUESTS IN OPINS.
11. COMMAND RESPONSIBILITIES AND PROCEDURES.
A. COMMANDS MUST SUBMIT SRB REQUESTS VIA OPINS 35-120 DAYS IN
ADVANCE OF THE SAILOR'S EAOS OR REENLISTMENT DATE TO ENSURE THE
APPROVAL OR DISAPPROVAL MESSAGE WILL REACH THE SAILOR'S COMMAND AND THE
DEFENSE FINANCE AND ACCOUNTING SERVICE (DFAS) BEFORE THE REENLISTMENT
DATE. TIMELINESS IS CRITICAL AS THE APPROVED PRECERT NOTIFIES DJMS OF
THE SAILOR'S INTENT TO REENLIST, PREVENTS INTERRUPTION OF PAY, AND
ENSURES THE INITIAL SRB PAYMENT POSTS TO THE SAILOR'S ACCOUNT. ANY
CHANGES TO THE APPROVAL MAY CAUSE ERRORS AND SLOW PAYMENTS. AS A
RESULT, CHANGES SHOULD BE AVOIDED. REQUESTS SUBMITTED LESS THAN 35
DAYS PRIOR TO THE REENLISTMENT DATE WITHOUT SUBSTANTIAL JUSTIFICATION
WILL BE REJECTED. SAILORS MUST HAVE APPROVED PRECERTS BEFORE
REENLISTING.
THE SERVICING PERSONNEL OFFICE IS RESPONSIBLE FOR VERIFYING THE
REENLISTMENT, POSTING THE CONTRACT, RELEASING THE FIRST PAYMENT, AND
VERIFYING THE MASTER MILITARY PAY ACCOUNT.
B. COMMANDS INITIATING SRB PRECERT REQUESTS MUST ENSURE ALL DATA
INCLUDED IN THE PRECERT REQUEST IS CORRECT AND THE SAILOR IS ELIGIBLE
TO REENLIST FOR THE REQUESTED SRB.
THE SRB REQUEST SHALL NOT BE ENTERED INTO OPINS UNTIL THE COMMANDING
OFFICER HAS APPROVED THE REENLISTMENT REQUEST.
C. SAILORS WITH APPROVED PRECERTS WHO DO NOT REENLIST ON THE DATE
OR FOR THE TERM SPECIFIED IN THE PRECERT MESSAGE MUST HAVE THEIR
COMMAND CONTACT NAVPERSCOM (PERS-811D) TO INITIATE A REENLISTMENT
CANCELLATION TO AVOID PLACING SAILORS IN AN OVERPAID STATUS.
12. INOPERATIVE EXTENSIONS POLICY. IN KEEPING WITH DOD POLICY,
PERSONNEL WHO ACCEPTED AN ENLISTMENT BONUS FOR EXTENDED ENLISTMENT
(EBEE), AS REFLECTED ON THEIR NAVCRUIT 1133/52, ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO
USE THIS INOPERATIVE EXTENSION TIME IN THE SRB CALCULATION. SAILORS
WHO HAVE INOPERATIVE EXTENSION TIME THROUGH A FIVE-YEAR OBLIGATION OR
SIX-YEAR OBLIGATION PROGRAM, OR AS AUTHORIZED IN NAVADMIN 007/09, MAY
CONTINUE TO HAVE A MAXIMUM OF 24 MONTHS OF INOPERATIVE EXTENSION TIME
NOT COUNT AGAINST THE CALCULATION OF SRB PROVIDED THE REENLISTMENT
RESULTS IN A NEW EAOS THAT IS AT LEAST 24 MONTHS DAY-FOR-DAY PAST THE
CURRENT EXTENDED EAOS. THIS CALCULATION IS PERFORMED AUTOMATICALLY BY
NAVPERSCOM (PERS-811). LOCAL COMMANDS ARE NOT AUTHORIZED TO CANCEL
EXTENSIONS FOR THE PURPOSE OF IMMEDIATE SRB REENLISTMENTS. COMMANDS
MUST VERIFY AND ANNOTATE ON THE PRECERT REQUEST WHETHER ANY INOPERATIVE
EXTENSION TIME NOTED IS PART OF AN ENLISTED BONUS FOR EXTENDED
ENLISTMENT (EBEE) CONTRACT.
13. PRECERT REQUIREMENTS. THE FOLLOWING ARE REQUIRED WHEN SUBMITTING
PRECERT REQUESTS:
A. TO VALIDATE AN INOPERATIVE EXTENSION OF ENLISTMENT AND EXPEDITE
PROCESSING OF AN SRB REQUEST, INCLUDE THE FOLLOWING IN THE REMARKS
PARAGRAPH OF THE REQUEST: TERM, NARRATIVE REASON, AUTHORITY, AND
EXECUTION DATE OF ALL INOPERATIVE EXTENSIONS. FAILURE TO VERIFY
EXTENSIONS WILL CAUSE PROCESSING DELAYS AND MAY RESULT IN REJECTION OF
THE REQUEST OR AN APPROVAL AT A LOWER AMOUNT.
B. SAILORS MUST OBTAIN AN APPROVAL FOR EXTENSION FROM NAVPERSCOM
(PERS-811) IN ORDER TO MINIMIZE THE POTENTIAL FOR LOSS OF SRB
ELIGIBILITY.
14. LITTORAL COMBAT SHIP (LCS) GUIDANCE. SAILORS ASSIGNED TO LCS
PLATFORMS OR WITH ORDERS TO AN LCS PLATFORM WHO POSSESS MULTIPLE NEC'S
SPECIFICALLY REQUIRED FOR LCS ASSIGNMENT ARE AUTHORIZED TO REENLIST FOR
THE MOST LUCRATIVE SRB-ELIGIBLE NEC, REGARDLESS OF ASSIGNED RATING.
15. TO ENSURE ALL REQUIREMENTS AND TIMELINES ARE MET, VISIT THE
FOLLOWING SRB PAGE OF THE NPC WEBSITE:
WWW.NPC.NAVY.MIL/CAREERINFO/PAYANDBENEFITS/N130/N130D
16. POINT OF CONTACT FOR A SAILOR WHO HAS REENLISTED AND HAS NOT
RECEIVED THEIR SRB PAYMENT, OR HAS QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE TAXATION OF
THEIR SRB AND ANNUAL INSTALLMENTS, IS THE SAILOR'S SERVICING PAY OFFICE
OR PERSONNEL SUPPORT DETACHMENT. SRB TAX INFORMATION IS ALSO DISCUSSED
IN DOD FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT REGULATION VOL 7A, CH 44, TABLE 44-1, RULE
7. THE POINT OF CONTACT FOR A SAILOR WITH QUESTIONS REGARDING THE SRB
PROGRAM OR ANY INFORMATION ON THEIR BUPERS ON-LINE ACCOUNT IS THEIR
COMMAND CAREER COUNSELOR (CCC). FOR TECHNICAL QUESTIONS OR
CLARIFICATIONS, CCCS, NOT THE INDIVIDUAL SAILORS, ARE ENCOURAGED TO
CONTACT NAVPERSCOM (PERS-811D) AT (901) 874-2526/DSN 882, FAX (901)
874-2623/DSN 882 OR E-MAIL EMCM(SS) IRISH AT
douglas.b.irish@navy.mil OR MR. FRANK PALOMO AT
