COERs**	Ensure that you are not missing any Commissioned Officer’s Effectiveness Reports (COERs) in your eOPF. Review COERs to ensure that all pages are present and legible. For New Officers: we recommend that you have a recent COER in your eOPF, even if not required. As long as your COER scores are on your PIR, you have met the COER deadline. Your COER does not need to be viewable in your eOPF to meet the deadline. Make sure your ROS is posted with your COER once your COER is entered into your eOPF. For additional assistance with COER-related matters, first visit the COER Information Page, and then contact your CC Liaison if you need additional assistance.	December 31, 2019
Officer's Statement	Submit a 2020 Officer's Statement (OS) to your eOPF using the eDOC-U upload system in your secure area eOPF. NOTE: Only the 2020 form will be accepted.	December 31, 2019
Reviewing Official's Statement	NEW: ROSs are now incorporated into the online annual COER. If you complete your annual COER online during the open period, your ROS will be submitted with your COER. In this case, a separate ROS is not needed. If you submitted a paper COER that became an annual COER (all transfer and interim COERs starting before and ending after July 1, 2019 ), an ROS submission through your liaison is still necessary. If you are not completing your 2019 annual COER online, verify by contacting your CC Liaison that the 2020 Reviewing Official's Statement (ROS) was submitted to and received by CCHQ prior to the deadline. CCHQ will index and upload the COER and ROS together as one document. NOTE: Only the 2020 ROS form will be accepted, and must be submitted through the Agency Liaison.	December 31, 2019
Required License/ Certification**	If required, ensure that your PIR reflects your current (not expired), valid Professional License or Certification at all times and at least by the checklist deadline. The actual license does not need to display in your eOPF by the deadline. Upload your current professional license through eDOC-U Information is available on the Licensure website: https:/dcp.psc.gov/ccmis/Licensure_m.aspx	December 31, 2019
eOPF Support Documents	Self-service documents must be uploaded to the eOPF via eDOC-U (ex. Letter of appreciation, Continuing Education)	December 31, 2019
Force Readiness**	Ensure that you maintain all Basic Force Readiness Requirements. You may check your status in the Officer Secure Area dashboard and Readiness Self Service application. Review the Readiness: Down to Basics Guide for documents and submission requirements. Force Readiness standards will be verified as of both dates listed. Basic Readiness checks now occur on a MONTHLY basis. If you are marked as “Not Qualified” for any month from September 1, 2019 to January 1, 2020, you will not be eligible for promotion board review. For PY2020 promotion boards will review the readiness history of officers for the previous 3 years (i.e., January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2020). The boards may use this information as a factor in the score for professional contributions, basic level of force readiness history and services to the Corps as well as the overall recommendation for promotion.	Ongoing
Medical Requirements for Promotion**	If eligible for a promotion, in addition to all other requirements listed above, ensure that you have the following on file with Medical Affairs (MA): NO LONGER NECESSARY: DD-2807-1 "Report of Medical History" with signed “Disclosure Statement” (expires annually). Do not send this form to medical affairs. DD-2808 “Report of Medical Exam” (expires every 5 years) PHS-6355 “Report of Dental Exam” (part of the 5-year physical) Refer to the Medical Requirements for Permanent and Temporary Promotion for more information. Check the Officer Secure Area (OSA) of CCMIS to verify the dates of your medical documents on file.	Ongoing
