Competitive Promotion Eligibility Criteria (Temporary and Permanent)  It is imperative that all officers check for competitive temporary and/or permanent promotion eligibility each year.  The Office of Commissioned Corps Operations (OCCO) will notify officers via the secure area of the CCMIS Web site of their eligibility for promotion review during the upcoming spring promotion boards. Eligibility is typically posted by late September of each year. Logon to the link below and review status at the top of the page. Please note: Officers may be eligible for temporary and permanent promotions at the same time. Also, officers eligible for Non-Competitive Promotion (P-O2 and P-O3 for Reserve Corps, T-O2, T-O3 (and for medical and dental officers only, T-O4) are not reviewed by a promotion board and therefore not identified as eligible for competitive promotion (See non-competitive promotion in Table of Contents if eligible for the grades listed above). Please review the login page carefully. Officers who are eligible for competitive promotion must review all the promotion information available throughout the Promotion Information Web site as it explains the promotion process and requirements to be fully prepared for an upcoming promotion review. An officer does not “apply” for promotion consideration. All officers who meet eligibility requirements WILL be reviewed for promotion whether the officer does anything to prepare his/her file or not. It is important for officers who meet eligibility requirements to submit all promotion documentation regardless of whether they think they will be successful in the promotion process or not. Officers who appear to not care enough about their careers to submit documentation in preparation for promotion may be “not recommend” by the board. There can be severe consequences to a not recommend from the promotion board (See Promotion Board Recommendations in Table of Contents). Check eligibility    Officers who would like to calculate future competitive temporary or permanent promotion eligibility, should click on the link below to see eligibility requirements. All the dates that are needed to calculate eligibility (i.e., Training and Experience (T & E), Promotion Credit, Seniority Credit, etc.) can be located in the secure area on an officer’s PIR (Promotion Information Report). For temporary promotion eligibility, an officer must meet all three requirements (T & E, Time-in-Service, and Time-in-Grade) within the upcoming promotion cycle to be eligible for promotion. The eligibility date is the first day of the month following the date the officer meets the last of all three requirements.                           Calculate eligibility
