How long does the National Guard have to get a soldier MOS qualified?

Prior service, re-enlisted into secondary MOS that mirrored civilian career.
Fulfilled original 3 year contract without being MOSQ'd. Currently deployed on 1 year extension. E-4 filling an E-5 slot even though I am not qualified for the position.

What options do I have, if any?

How did you fulfill a contract when you weren't DMOSQ'd?

But, to answer your question:

Since you came back in with your Secondary MOS, all that needs to be done is someone clicking a button generating orders stating that is now your Primary MOS. And it shouldn't take long. First step that you need to do is talk with your S1 to figure out where the drop in the cracks happened.

Do you hold any MOS?

Thanks to all who replied. But to my original question, is there a timeline to get a soldier MOSQ’d?
