• Sailors will have time to consider converting to
another rating if there is no room in their current

aligned with orders negotiation through CMS-ID

Please provide a copy for your leadership to view during career navigator discussions. This document will definitely assist you with your counseling efforts.*For all E-5 and below, categories of skill sets have been developed to streamline processing of reenlistment requests.
Sailors in skills that are in the open reenlistment category (undermanned) will be approved on their first applications. Sailors who are in skills that are balanced or in the competitive reenlistment category (overmanned), or that have special requirements, will be screened according to their year group manning; some will be approved on their first application and others may have to apply more than once as they compete with other Sailors in their skill sets who are applying to reenlist at that time.
* And all Sailors will know at least 10 months from the end of their contract whether they will be able to reenlist in their current rate. (NPC FORCM)In the near future (early Fall 2013), these Sailors will receive real-time confirmation to reenlist.
*Sailors can still change their minds after this initial check-in, and we encourage Sailors to let their Career Counselors know as soon as possible.
Career Waypoint – Reenlistment5 Things you need to know:You tell the Navy what you want to do (to stay or separate) starting one month earlier. All Sailors will continue to indicate their intentions to reenlist or separate with their career counselor. This check-in will happen 13 months in advance, one month earlier than before. Sailors can still change their minds after this initial check-in, and we encourage them to let their career counselors know if they’ve made a change as soon as possible.For most rates, make E6 and you can reenlist. All eligible and command-approved E-6 Sailors will be approved for reenlistment on their first application. All Sailors will know sooner. Approximately 75% of Sailors requesting reenlistment will receive approval on their first application and all Sailors will know at least 10 months from the end of their contract whether they will be able to reenlist in their current rate. For most Sailors E5 and below who are command-approved to reenlist, you will have approval on your first request, within approximately 30 days. You will know your options in time to make plans. The new reenlistment process is aligned with your orders negotiation window so you have more time to ask for orders you want. If you are not able to reenlist in rate you will have the opportunity to convert to a different rate or transition to the Reserve Component and get an answer in enough time to make informed plans. Immediate confirmations coming soon. In the near future, as our IT system is updated, most Sailors and their commands will receive confirmation immediately upon application submittal resulting in no wait period. Sailors in ratings that have special requirements can expect to see confirmation within approximately 30 days.
**Professional Apprenticeship Career Track (PACT) designation process, and added new processes for Reservists to convert ratings or transition to AC. We are implementing a new career feedback survey in Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS), and will be adding Sailor online access in the near future.
