EDIT: PROMOTED TO 1LT EFFECTIVE 03 JAN 19! THANK YOU FOR FOLLOWING THIS POST.
Does anyone know of the current status on scroll L04-18? I commissioned back in Aug-2016, graduated BOLC on Jan-2018, and received my state orders for promotion on Feb-2018. My BN submitted my promotion packet in 16-Jul-2018 (due to an expired PHA); otherwise, I have been free of any administrative issues to date.
However, as of Oct-2018, my federal recognition packet status on G1 personnel gateway still reads the following:
"Scroll created with packets and List_ID; L04-18; 0 Days in DoD Approval cycle."
I have three questions in regards to this situation:
1. Roughly how long would it take for the approval process to begin?
2. I understand that backpay is allotted for delayed O-1 to O-2 promotions after meeting the TIG requirement of 18 months. Is the backpay automatic? If not, who is my POC and how could I secure an accurate backpay?
3. Do O-1 to O-2 promotions normally take this long, albeit a clean record?
Thanks in advance.

A fellow LT in my state just got his fed rec- it took about 5 months. Back pay is not automatic- your unit needs to submit a request (DA 119 I think) to fix it. Your POC is your training or readiness NCO. Back date of rank is automatic.
As for the scroll information, sometimes the portal is wrong. You can reach out to your BN and have them check with your OPM to ensure your paperwork is good, but it would probably say awaiting document upload if it were missing something. After that, you basically just wait...
