Why is there such a long wait for reserve component officer and warrant federal recognition/promotion?

Can anyone tell me why the process takes so long for RC officer/warrant promotions to run through the FedRec cycle? I'm an ARNG officer and I've had my state promotion orders for CPT since the middle of April. I've been tracking my packet on the ARNG-G1 website and it was awaiting addition to a scroll until a month ago and last week the scroll was ready to start the approval DoD cycle. Thoughts?

It's funny waiting for this, because it's pins and needles every day and then once it comes, its on to the next thing in life and mostly forgotten.

Thanks for letting me know that the Fedrec tracker was down! Jesus.. I've been showing packet acceptance since November 30. I got scared that it was showing at that level.
Thanks!

Ma'am, would you mind emailing your contact about scroll statuses? I was just wondering if there had been any movement in the last 2 weeks.

Would you mind sharing your POC to get scroll updates? If they have an out of office message active, we won't even have to bother them. Someone needs to keep the updates coming!

Believe it or not but the G1 portal tracker says that too. Only took a solid month plus to update. Hopefully the Sec Def approval only takes a few days, if that.

Wonder if this will hold me up going Reserve AGR. I submitted my App on HRC site and will be in the August board. Can anyone enlighten me??

1LT(P) Q J. - Yeah I was hopeful to get on Active Duty under the CAD MILPER 18-56, because it didn't state that WOs had to have WOBC complete. It simply stated that we needed to have experience, education, and training in our field. Well that Milper message has since been updated and now it states WO1 have to have WOBC complete before being considered. I am not even scheduled to start WOBC until March 2019, so now I am hopeful for the reserve AGR option.

The much anticipated "Status of the Scrolls"....
3 weeks since previous update, so a lot of action.
No one in my State on U03, U05, U07, U08 (assuming they exist) so I wont get any status on them.

Does anyone have reference to S01-18. I did not see it on CW4 Bruce's screenshot. I checked the G1 FEDREQ tracker, but it appears to be behind based on scrolls that have published over the last week?
Thanks!
Thanks!

On "My AKO/ORB/FED REC status" tab, does anyone know what the colors (Red, Amber, Green) represent when it's filled in on top of the "number of days in the scroll"? Today, mine shows "120 days in the scroll" but it just has the white background without any color. Yesterday, it was amber/yellow with 119 days. Just curious.

Sir, on day 121 it will turn red. There is no significance that day 120 is white. Probably just a glitch, it happened to me too.

Our state OPM is awesome. He just sent a new update. Here is the *actual* status of scrolls of of 2 Feb 2018. Those of you on D08-17, it is now back at OSD, so hopefully this means it will be signed soon.

CPT (Join to see) - Yikes! Thanks for the info. Now I have somewhat of realistic target amount of days to expect. 2-3 more months I guess. I'm sure the holiday season threat of government shutdowns didn't help us out... smh... thanks again tho.

Chief,
Any chance you can get the screen updated reflecting current status S01-18 and other current scrolling packets?

Any way you can get an updated list for almost 2 months later? Im on L04-17 and my FEDREC G1 page says JAG, but this says DMPM so Im curious to what this list would say now. where do you find this? 218 days in the process for us 04-17 guys and gals.

Yes, I am back, and yes scroll U06-17 is now deemed a relic. In fact, I think I am going to contact the archeologists at the Smithsonian Institution to examine the scroll by running it through a carbon dating process. They may, in fact, scratch their heads in wonder because the half-life decay far exceeds that of carbon-14. Their final assessment on the original date of scroll U06-17: inconclusive.
In all seriousness, I learned from our CCWO that another 180A (SF Warrant) went through the FedRec after me, and received his promotion within the past 2-months. Then he added that U06-17 is setting the record (for our state, not nationally) for the longest time it has gone through this idiotic process. Needless to say, my inner 'Ranger mad...ranger smash' came out, followed by flipping tables and getting into my car to unleash my road rage...on everyone, even to the cops that pulled me over after conducting a high-risk stop. While I was on the ground, and with my hands spread out, I turned my head and spoke out of the corner of my mouth to explain, in detail, about the FedRec process. The officers dropped their weapons at their side and almost like a church chorus, they collectively sang, "Ahhhh, we don't blame you! La la laaa.....we know about the FedRec, a national disgrace....la laa la!" It was magical. I dusted myself off, got back in my car, and drove away as the officers said, with tears rolling down their cheeks, "There goes another victim whose oxygen was stolen by the thieves running the FedRec process."

Negligence, apathy, and overall complacency are traits that cause systems to deteriorate to the point of utter disrepair. Unless the NGB purges their workforce and replaces them with government and contract employees who truly care about this country and the military, the NGB will continue into perpetuity to be a symbol of ineptitude at its worst. If I was the NGB, I would be embarrassed to stand before the SECDEF's desk, after which he may suggest they close the door behind them to receive a..ahem...good ole fashioned talking to. What the NGB did is not how SMs are supposed to be treated. Disgraceful, utterly disgraceful.

I am U06-18, I know ...I know... I need to be patient right? This process is ridiculous when you consider all we are required to do to get promoted. Normally it would not be such a big deal but since I am deployed it is a big pay difference. My Fed Rec status has not changed in more than a month. If anyone knows of another tracker please point me in that direction.
Thanks brothers!

CW3 (Join to see) - I'm on U06-18 as well for promotion to CW5 and I have been checking the tracker probably more than I should because it is really depressing to see absolutely no movement. I checked it this morning however and it has finally made a move. My packet was submitted to NGB on Feb 1st, 2018 so I'm prepared for an end of the year order being published. CW4 David Morrow

QUICK UPDATE: For those that are on Scroll L01-17 & P01-17; our packets are at OSD. Apparently the tracker system hasn't been updated as the individual who manages it has been out out on leave for 3 weeks. So have no fear they are moving along! Not too much longer!

Your story sounds just like mine. My order was published October 21st. It was over 90 days before it appeared to start moving in the scroll. I understand that Army wants to ensure it promoting the right people and no one slips through the cracks but this is become silly. I am just hoping the scroll publishes before August (AT).
