Each member of the Navy Reserve who is not on the Active Duty List (ADL) is placed in one of three categories: 1. Ready Reserve (USNR-R); 2. Standby Reserve, consisting of the Standby Reserve-Active (USNR-S1) and Standby Reserve-Inactive (USNR-S2); or 3. Retired Reserve (USNR-Retired). Members in the USNR-R and USNR-S1 are considered to be in an active status; members in the USNR-S2 are in an inactive status; members in the USNR-Retired are in a retired status. Figures 1-1 and 1-2 are provided to clarify status and categories. Assignment to or transfer between any category is made only by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) for officers, NAVPERSCOM (PERS-912/913) for enlisted, and NAVPERSCOM (PERS-912) for USNR-Retired. 102. Status. Each member of the Navy Reserve is in an active, inactive, or retired status as defined below. 1. Active Status. Reserve members assigned to the USNR-R and USNR-S1 are in an active status. Officers in an active status are also listed on the Reserve Active Status List (RASL). Active status members are eligible to a. train with or without pay, based on the members' category; b. serve on Active Duty (AD), Active Duty for Training (ADT), Inactive Duty, or perform Inactive Duty Training (IDT); c. earn retirement points; d. be considered for advancement or promotion, if eligible (see figure 1-2). 1-1 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 Limitations on a member's eligibility to remain in an active status are identified in sections 104 through 107 of this chapter. 2. Inactive Status. Reserve members assigned to the USNR-S2 are in an inactive status and are on the Reserve Inactive Status List (ISL). They are assigned for reasons outlined in section 103.3. They are not eligible to a. receive pay for training; b. earn retirement points; or c. be considered for advancement or promotion or be advanced or promoted. 3. Retired Status. Members in the Retired Reserve are in a retired status. Unless recalled to Active Duty, they may not receive retirement point credit. They may not be advanced or promoted. See section 103 of this chapter; chapter 5, section 507; and chapter 10, section 1008 for further information. 103. Reserve Categories. Information pertaining to each of the categories follows: 1. USNR-R a. Members of the USNR-R are in an active status. b. The USNR-R is composed of the Selected Reserve (SELRES) and the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR). Members who drill for pay are in the SELRES. Members not assigned to a pay billet are in the IRR. Members in the IRR either participate in a Voluntary Training Unit (VTU) or are assigned to the Active Status Pool (ASP). c. All individuals obligated to serve in the Navy Reserve shall be assigned to the USNR-R upon original appointment or enlistment and will normally remain in the USNR-R for the remainder of their military service obligation (MSO). Upon completion of MSO, enlisted members may voluntarily elect to remain in the USNR-R by signing a statement of enlistment, reenlistment, or extension document per chapter 4, section 406. Officers remain Ready Reservists until transferred or discharged 1-2 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 per SECNAVINST 1920.6C. See section 1012 of this instruction for further guidance. d. Limitations on eligibility for members to remain in the USNR-R are identified throughout this chapter. e. Members of the Ready Reserve are eligible for involuntary recall to Active Duty in time of national emergency or when authorized by law. 2. USNR-S1. Navy Reservists are transferred to the USNR-S1 by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913). They are in an active status and are eligible to participate in a Navy Reserve program without pay for retirement point credit only. They may not receive pay, allowances, or travel allowances for any drill participation, ADSW, or ADT. All officers continue to be eligible for promotion consideration. Enlisted members in this category are not eligible for advancement unless they are drilling in a VTU and are not subject to High Year Tenure (HYT). Members are subject to involuntary recall to Active Duty only in time of war or national emergency per 10 U.S.C., 12301 (see figure 22-1). Reservists eligible for USNR-S1 are transferred to that category by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913) for any of the following reasons: a. Reservists who have temporary mobilization restrictions as identified through the mobilization screening process (chapter 21) or for other reasons approved by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913) and intend to return to the USNR-R. b. Reservists who are declared to be key employees in either the Federal or non-Federal workforce per applicable Department of Defense (DOD) instructions or DOD policy guidance. c. Reservists, other than those with designator 1945, preparing for religious ministry by attending recognized theological or divinity schools (or equivalent) or those preparing to meet religious faith group requirements. d. Reservists, other than designated medical department officers (19X5 designator), who enroll in an accredited medical, osteopathic, or dental program (MILPERSMAN 1001-070). e. Reservists whose retention in an active status for reasons other than those specified above is considered by the 1-3 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) to be in the best interest of the Navy. 3. USNR-S2 a. Members transferred to the USNR-S2 by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913) are in an inactive status. They may not participate for retirement points or pay and may not be assigned to any Navy Reserve organization other than the Inactive Status Pool. They may not be considered for advancement or promotion. If they have been selected for advancement or promotion but not advanced or appointed to the higher rank or rating at the time of their transfer to the USNR-S2, that promotion or advancement will not take effect. They are subject to recall as authorized by law. Enlisted members (USNR-S2) may be returned to USNR-R status if qualified and requested, or retired if eligible, or discharged at end of the contract. Officers not eligible for transfer to the Retired Reserve may normally remain in the USNR-S2 for 1 year. After that time, officers will be screened and considered for discharge unless they (1) execute a Ready Reserve Transfer Request Service Agreement (figure 1-3), if eligible; (2) request transfer to the IRR, if eligible; (3) are approved to remain on the ISL for an additional period of time; or (4) are members receiving annual Voluntary Separation Incentive (VSI) payments. b. Reservists who have completed their MSO may be transferred to USNR-S2 by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913) for any of the following reasons: (1) Failure to become active in the Navy Reserve program after receiving notice of MSO completion (officers only). (2) Failure to satisfy minimum participation requirements per section 104. 1-4 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 (3) Submission of a personal request that is approved by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913). (4) Selective early removal from the RASL under 10 U.S.C., 14704. (5) Members eligible for retired pay under 10 U.S.C., chapter 1223, with a disability rating of less than 30 percent and assigned to the USNR-S2 instead of being separated for that disability. (6) Interim status while completing separation processing per SECNAVINST 1920.6C. (7) When otherwise authorized or directed by law, regulation, policy, or when judged to be in the best interests of the Navy. 4. USNR-Retired. Reservists in the USNR-R, USNR-S1, and USNR-S2 are transferred to the Retired Reserve upon request or as directed per OPNAVINST 1820.1. In order for them to become a member of the USNR-Retired, Reservists must a. meet eligibility requirements per chapter 20, section 2008; b. submit a request to transfer to the USNR-Retired to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-912) or be directed for transfer to the USNR-Retired by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913), and c. be transferred to the USNR-Retired by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-912). Members of the USNR-Retired are subject to recall to Active Duty in time of war, or national emergency declared by Congress, or when otherwise authorized by law. Retired Reservists may not receive retirement point credit for the performance of any duty (except while authorized to serve on Active Duty) after the effective date of their transfer to retired status. Voluntary participation in the Navy Reserve is authorized on a permissive basis (see chapter 5, section 507 for enlisted; chapter 10, section 1008 for officers). 1-5 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 5. Former Members. Members of the Navy Reserve who become eligible for non-regular retired pay at or after age 60 by meeting the service requirements per 10 U.S.C., 12731 and who are subsequently discharged are referred to as "Former Members." Having been discharged, these individuals are no longer members of the Navy Reserve and are, therefore, not found in one of the status categories discussed in sections 101 and 102; however, Former Members are still entitled to receive retired pay at age 60 and benefits provided for under 10 U.S.C., chapter 54. However, computation of retired pay at age 60 will necessarily be adjusted to account for their earlier separation from Military Service. (See chapter 20, section 2020 for specific entitlements.) 104. Minimum Participation Requirements to Remain in an Active Status in the Navy Reserve. The USNR-R and USNR-S1 are continually screened by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913) to ensure that assigned members are participating at a level consistent with their active status. NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/913) may transfer members who have completed their initial MSO and who are not earning sufficient retirement point credit to the USNR-S2. Officers so transferred may request reinstatement to the USNR-R by meeting the requirements specified in this instruction and completing a NAVPERS 1200/1, Ready Reserve Transfer Request Service Agreement (figure 1-3). Enlisted members may agree to remain in the USNR-R by signing the statement on the enlistment/ reenlistment contract or on the extension documents. The member must take appropriate steps to meet minimum participation requirements or may again be screened from an active status. Successive requests for reinstatement will generally be disapproved. Minimum participation requirements are as follows: 1. Officers with fewer than 20 years of qualifying service, computed as of the date of the screening, must earn at least 27 points, including membership points, each anniversary year to remain in an active status. (See chapters 20 and 21.) There are no minimum participation requirements for enlisted members with fewer than 20 years of qualifying service to remain in an active status. Failure to earn 50 points in an anniversary year will result in a non-qualifying year for retirement. 2. Officers and enlisted members with 20 years or more of qualifying service, computed as of the date of the screening, must earn at least 50 points, including membership points, each 1-6 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 anniversary year per DOD Instruction 1200.15. Note that the standards required to remain in an active status are different from the minimum participation standards for drilling members (see chapter 11). 105. Officer Promotion and Attrition while in an Active Status 1. Promotion of Navy Reserve Officers. Promotions to chief warrant officer (CWO3, CWO4, or CWO5) and to all ranks above lieutenant result from recommendations made by selection boards. Prior to being considered for promotion by a selection board, officers must meet the following requirements: a. Possess a date of rank and register number within or above the zone of consideration for their designator and rank. b. Serve continuously on the RASL or ADL during the 1-year period ending on the date of the convening of the promotion board per 10 U.S.C., 14301. Accordingly, officers returning to an active status from a period of inactive or broken service (USNR-S2, USNR-Retired, or discharge) are eligible for consideration for promotion only after continuously serving in an active status for 1 full year. 2. Years of Commissioned Service. As defined in 10 U.S.C., 14706, a Navy Reserve officer's years of commissioned service include all service (other than constructive service and initial commissioned student service as a 19XX designated officer) as a commissioned officer of any uniformed service (other than service as a warrant officer). By law, years of commissioned service serve as an indicator for identifying officers in the rank of lieutenant commander or above who become subject to attrition under 10 U.S.C., 14506 or 14507. 3. Attrition from an Active Status Due to Failure of Selection/Years of Service. Criteria for attrition from an active status (USNR-R or USNR-S1) as specified in 10 U.S.C., 14503, 14504, 14505, 14506, 14507, and SECNAVINST 1920.6C are summarized in this section. The general policy is for NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) to notify active status Navy Reserve officers who meet the following attrition criteria that they must retire, if eligible; be retained or continued, if eligible and elected by the member; or be discharged: 1-7 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 a. Lieutenants (junior grade) who twice fail to select to the next higher rank will be retired, if eligible, or be discharged no later than the first day of the 7th month after the month which the report of the board which considered the officer for the second time is approved. b. Lieutenants who twice fail to select to the next higher rank before a Navy Reserve selection board will be retired, if eligible, or be discharged at the later of (1) completion of their MSO; or (2) the 1st day of the 7th month after the month on which the report of the board which considered the officer for the second time is approved. c. Lieutenant commanders who twice fail to select to the next higher rank before a Navy Reserve selection board will be retired, if eligible, or be discharged at the later of (1) the 1st day of the month after the month on which the officer completes 20 years of commissioned service; or (2) the 1st day of the 7th month after the month on which the report of the board which considered the officer for the second time is approved. d. Commanders and captains not on a promotion list for the next higher rank will be subject to attrition on the 1st day of the month after the month in which they have completed 28 or 30 years, respectively, of commissioned service. e. Exceptions (1) Officers continued or retained as approved by SECNAV's annual Navy Reserve Retention and Continuation Plan (NRRCP). (2) Officers, in the ranks of captain and below meeting the provisions addressed above who have between 18 and 20 years of qualifying service for retirement purposes at the time of required attrition, are offered a one-time exemption (for a specified time per 10 U.S.C., 1264G), allowing them the opportunity to attain 20 years of qualifying service. 1-8 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 (3) Women officers and Navy Nurse Corps officers who were serving in the Navy Reserve on Active Duty or on the RASL on 30 September 1996 are subject to attrition from an active status under conditions of law in effect before 1 October 1996. Accordingly, they may be involuntarily removed from the RASL for reasons of failure for selection or years of service only by a special board convened by SECNAV. (4) Per 10 U.S.C., 14703, officers in the ranks of captain and commander appointed in the Navy Medical Corps, Dental Corps, Nurse Corps, Chaplain Corps, or appointed in the Medical Service Corps and designated to perform as a veterinarian, optometrist, podiatrist, health officer, or biomedical sciences officer may be retained in an active status as specified in SECNAV NRRCP. f. Permanent warrant officers who have (1) twice failed for selection of promotion to the next higher permanent warrant officer rank are subject to the attrition provisions of SECNAVINST 1920.6C. Officers with 20 years or more of qualifying service will be notified by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) and retired. Officers with at least 18 years but fewer than 20 years of qualifying service may be extended for a limited period of additional time, allowing them the opportunity to attain 20 years of qualifying service. Officers with fewer than 18 years of qualifying service may be afforded an opportunity to reenlist in their former enlisted status or be discharged from the Navy Reserve. (2) attained 30 or more years of qualifying service are subject to attrition from an active status in the Navy Reserve per SECNAVINST 1920.6C. Warrant officers approaching 30 years of qualifying service will be advised by letter from NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) that they will be removed from an active status list unless selectively retained. If not offered retention, members will be retired. 4. Age Restrictions. As per 10 U.S.C., chapter 1407, officers who reach the age limits set out below are not eligible for retention in the SELRES, IRR, or Standby Reserve. When officers approach the age limits listed below, they will be notified by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) and advised of their options. Possible options include retirement, if eligible and requested; 1-9 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 Honorable discharge, if appropriate; or retention, if authorized and requested (Note 1). The following maximum age limits apply as provided in 10 U.S.C., 14509-14511 as modified by National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) 2007: O7 and below - - - - - - - - 62 years O8 - - - - - - - - - - - - - -64 years Note 1: Periodically, SECNAV will authorize the retention of certain categories of officers via the SECNAV NRRCP as authorized in 10 U.S.C., 14703. NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) will notify these officers of their eligibility for retention. The affected officers may then request to be considered for retention. If selected for retention, NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) will inform them of the specific period of authorized retention. In all cases, however, the maximum period of retention will not exceed the date when the officer reaches 67 years of age. 5. Selective Early Removal from the RASL. Law restricts the number and composition of Navy Reserve officers authorized to serve in an active status. When a category of officers is projected to reach the maximum number allowed by law or approved strength plans, NAVPERSCOM (PERS-9) convenes a board to remove certain officers in that category from the RASL under 10 U.S.C., 14704. Members being considered for removal are normally notified in advance so that they may communicate with the board. Those non-continued will be notified of their separation date. 106. Bureau of Naval Personnel (BUPERS) Control Group Category. There are certain Inactive Duty personnel that NAVPERSCOM (PERS-9) tracks for various reasons. These personnel are placed in BUPERS Control Group Categories, and NAVPERSCOM (PERS-9) retains control over their possible assignment, retention, and mobilization. The BUPERS Control Group Categories are updated by NAVPERSCOM in the Inactive Manpower and Personnel Management Information System (IMAPMIS) Data File. 1. Identification. There are currently three BUPERS Control Group Categories used by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-9). Placement in Control Group Category 1 indicates the member may not be in compliance with the Navy's Physical Readiness Program. BUPERS Control Group Categories 8 and 9 are internal codes used by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-8/9) for various reasons. 1-10 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 2. Navy Reserve Participation and Mobilization Assignment. Personnel in BUPERS Control Categories 8 and 9 or Mobilization Availability Status (MAS) code "BCG" will not be permitted to affiliate with or separate from any Reserve unit (pay or non- pay); perform AT, ADT, ADSW; or be called to Active Duty without prior verbal approval of NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) for officers and (PERS-913) for enlisted personnel. Personnel in BUPERS Control Category 1 will be monitored by the order-issuing authority to assure compliance with the Navy Physical Readiness Program. 3. Discharges and Retirements. Discharge and retirement orders for individuals in BUPERS Control Categories 8 and 9 or MAS code "BCG" will not be accomplished until approval has been received from NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911) for officers and NAVPERSCOM (PERS-913) for enlisted personnel. 107. Enlisted Participation in an Active Status: Age and Years of Service Restrictions 1. Age Restrictions. Normally, enlisted members of the Navy Reserve are not eligible for retention in an active status (i.e., USNR-R, USNR-S1) after attaining 60 years of age. a. Notification. Supporting Navy Operational Support Center (NOSC) COs will ensure that affected enlisted members are notified at least 12 months prior to their 60th birthday and required counseling is conducted. Enter the following as a service record entry on an NAVPERS 1070/613, Administrative Remarks: (Date) I will reach my 60th birthday on ________. In order for me to continue in a pay status from that date forward, I must request and receive an approved age 60 waiver from NAVPERSCOM (PERS-913) before my 60th birthday. If my request to remain in a pay status is not approved, I may be transferred into a non-pay status where I may continue to accrue qualifying service through non-pay drills or the completion of correspondence courses until I become retirement eligible or age 63, whichever occurs first. Additionally, if it is subsequently determined that I will not be able to attain 20 qualifying years of service prior to reaching age 63, I will be transferred to the USNR-S2 where I will not be allowed to reenlist or extend upon 1-11 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 expiration of my current enlistment, and I will not be recommended for reenlistment. b. Waiver Policy (1) If otherwise qualified, enlisted members may request a waiver to be retained in an active status after attaining age 60 under the following circumstances: (a) Members assigned to a NOSC who originally enlisted prior to 15 April 1987 and are unable to complete 20 years of qualifying service prior to attaining age 60 but who can complete 20 years of qualifying service prior to age 63 may apply for an age waiver no later than 9 months prior to their 60th birthday. Authority to grant such waivers has been delegated to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-913). (b) IRR members attached to the ASP who are unable to complete 20 years of qualifying service prior to attaining age 60 but who can complete 20 years of qualifying service prior to age 63 may apply for an age waiver. Authority to grant this waiver is delegated to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-913). (2) If the age waiver is approved, members will be authorized to continue in an active status in either a pay or non-pay capacity until eligible for retired pay but in no instance past their 63rd birthday. Determination as to pay or non-pay is made by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-913) and is based upon numerous factors, among which are manning levels, special skills/qualifications, mobilization potential, Reserve unit manning, length of waiver, and physical readiness. (3) Supporting NOSCs will remove from a pay status those Reservists who have reached age 60 and are not in receipt of an age waiver. (4) Members who cannot reach retirement eligibility by their 63rd birthday will not be retained in the active Reserve and will be transferred to the USNR-S2 by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-913). Such members will not be reenlisted, extended upon expiration of current enlistment, or recommended for reenlistment. (5) Members who receive a waiver to participate beyond age 60 and subsequently become unable to achieve 1-12 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 retirement eligibility will be processed for discharge under the appropriate MILPERSMAN 1910 articles. c. Waiver Submission Procedures (1) Enlisted members desiring an age 60 waiver to serve in an active status shall submit a written request to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-913) via their Navy Reserve Unit CO and the supporting NOSC (figure 1-4). (2) At a minimum, the Reserve Unit CO's endorsement should include a statement concerning the impact that the loss of the member would have on the unit along with any other pertinent information supporting the member's request. 2. HYT. Enlisted personnel desiring to serve in the SELRES past HYT gates must request a waiver per MILPERSMAN 1160-130. Current HYT limiting gates are as follows: E9 30 years E5 22 years E8 26 years E4 14 years E7 24 years E3 12 years E6 24 years 108. Sanctuary Provisions 1. As a general rule, if members become subject to any of the foregoing attrition actions at a time when they have accumulated between 18 and 20 years of qualifying service, NAVPERSCOM (PERS-911/PERS-913) will notify the members and offer an extension in an active status allowing them the opportunity to complete 20 years of qualifying service. For officer personnel, 10 U.S.C., 12646 applies, which excludes sanctuary in cases of separation due to age, physical disability, or cause. For enlisted personnel, 10 U.S.C., 1176 applies, which excludes sanctuary in cases of separation due to physical disability or cause. 2. Per 10 U.S.C., 12686, members who have accumulated 18 or more years of active service who are serving on Active Duty (other than for training) may not be involuntarily released from Active Duty until eligible for an Active Duty retirement unless release is approved by SECNAV. Therefore, members serving on ADSW or Active Duty orders who have accumulated at least 18 1-13 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 years of active service (all ADT, AT, ADSW, or other active service counts) are included in the sanctuary. ADT and AT orders for members with more than 18 years of active service do not trigger the sanctuary provision.

Navy reservists are required to meet physical qualifications for retention in the Navy Reserve. These standards are set forth in the Manual of the Medical Department (MANMED). Reservists must also comply with physical readiness standards provided in OPNAVINST 6.110.lJ, which are separate and distinct from physical qualifications. All drilling reservists are responsible for notifying their NRA CO of any physical or dental problem that may delay or preclude their performance of regular drill, required AT, or mobilization. Failure to notify the NRA CO may result in administrative action. Additionally, if unit or activity cos receive information from the annual screening (see chapter 21) or, for any other reason, believe a reservist is not physically qualified for Active Duty or retention, they shall ensure the member is examined by a medical officer (MO) as soon as possible. Non-drilling IRR members will notify NAVPERSCOM, Individual Ready Reserve Branch (PERS-93), of any significant changes in medical status. 202. Injury While in a Duty Status. Navy reservists injured or incurring a disease while in a duty status may be eligible for incapacitation benefits per SECNAVINST 1770.3D. They may also be subject to Medical Retention Review (MRR) upon closure of the benefits entitlement. Duty status includes, but is not limited to AT, ADT, ADSW, Initial Active Duty for Training (IADT), Inactive Duty Travel Training (IDTT), IDT, Inactive Duty (ID), Funeral Honors, or Presidential Selected Reserve Call-Up (PSRC). MRR Case management authority is NAVPERSCOM, Line of Duty,. Medical Hold, Medical Retention Review Branch (PERS-95). See Reserve Personnel (RESPERS) Manual M-1001.5 for additional information about administrative management of MRR cases. 203. Injury While Not in a Duty Status Navy reservists not in a duty status who are injured or develop a potential physically disqualifying condition are categorized as Temporarily Not Physically Qualified (TNPQ) or Not Physically Qualified (NPQ). 1. TNPQ TNPQ status results from an injury/condition, which is exp~cted to be corrected or healed within 6 months. Navy reservists in a TNPQ status will be assigned per Commander, Navy Reserve Forces Command (COMNAVRESFORCOM)assignment policy 2-1 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F CH-1 _a MAY2013 and participation is limited per RESPERS M-1001.5, Article 6000-010. If members are transferred to the VTU, they must be counseled that their participation is limited to completing correspondence courses for retirement point credit or drilling non-pay if authorized. Members must also be made aware of collection changes to Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI) as outlined in chapter 15. It is especially important for members who are nearing, but have not yet completed, 20 years of qualifying service to recognize the importance of continuing to accrue retirement point credit. a. The supporting NRA must: (1) Prepare a NAVPERS 1070/613 to document the member has been advised of participation options. Have the member sign the NAVPERS 1070/613 and provide a copy to the member. (See figure 2-1). (2) Prepare a NAVPERS 1070/613 to document the member has been advised of changes to SGLI. Have the member sign NAVPERS 1070/613 and provide a copy to the member. (See figure 15-1). 2. NPQ If a potentially disqualifying physical condition is discovered, the supporting NRA CO will place the member in an MRR status. In this status, the MO or Medical Department Representative (MDR) will recommend and the supporting NRA CO will make the final determination of whether the member may or may not drill with the current unit per COMNAVRESFORCOM assignment policy while in an MRR status and awaiting final determination of physical qualification. Participation limitations will be per RESPERS M-1001.5, Article 6000-010. a. If members are transferred to the VTU, they must be counseled that their participation is limited to completing correspondence courses for retirement point credit or drilling non-pay if authorized. Members must also be made aware of collection changes to SGLI as outlined in chapter 15. It is especially important for members who are nearing, but have not yet completed, 20 years of qualifying service to recognize the importance of continuing to accrue retirement point credit. b. The supporting NRA must do the following: (1) Prepare a NAVPERS 1070/613 to document the member has been advised of participation options. Have the member sign 2-2 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F CH-1 NAVPERS 1070/613 and provide a copy to the member. (See figure 2-1). (2) Prepare a NAVPERS 1070/613 to document the member has been advised of changes to SGLI. Have the member sign NAVPERS 1070/613 and provide a copy to the member. (See figure 15-1). (3) The MO, unit CO, and NRA CO must make appropriate recommendations regarding the ability of the member to continue to perform duties and must submit a Physical Qualification Package to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) via Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (BUMED), (M32), for retention in the Navy Reserve. The Physical Qualification Package will include current physical examinations, all medical/surgical treatment records with an (updated within the last 6 months) non-medical assessments. c. BUMED (M32) will review available information and recommend disposition of the member to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95). BUMED will recommend either physical qualification or Physical Risk Classification (PRC) A, B, 4 or 5, as appropriate per MILPERSMAN 6110-020. d. NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) will assign a PRC A, B, 4 or 5 and will notify members via the supporting NRA of the assigned PRC to include limitations on participation, options available, and actions for the members to take to resolve their status. e. If a member is determined to be NPQ, PRC 5, options are: (1) Accept the findings and retire, if eligible, or be discharged; (2) Request a Physical Evaluation Board (PEB). (a) The PEB request will be returned to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) with the information as outlined in the PRC letter. (b) NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) will then forward request to the PEB for further disposition. (c) If the PEB determines the member is fit for retention, NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) may assign another appropriate PRC and notify the member via the NRA of that action. Note: Members who fail to respond to the notification to elect one of the options will be retired or discharged as further directed by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95) 2-3 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F CH-1 ~ MAY2013 f. SELRES members who accept PRC 5 or are found not fit for retention by a PEB and who have at least 15 years of qualifying service may be eligible for early retirement (see chapter 20 for details). 3. Enlisted Contract Management During Medical Review. Enlisted members with fewer than 6 months remaining on their enlistment shall sign the following NAVPERS 1070/613 entry: Date "I do/do not consent to be retained in the Navy Reserve beyond the normal date of expiration of enlistment pending resolution of my fitness for retention. 11 If these members consent to being held beyond the normal expiration of enlistment, the following NAVPERS 1070/613 entry shall be entered at their expiration of obligated service (EOS) date: Date "Held beyond normal date of expiration of enlistment pending resolution of fitness for retention. AUTH: MILPERSMAN 1160-050 and BUPERSINST 1001.39F. 11 Members who do not consent to being retained beyond their normal EOS pending resolution of fitness for retention shall be discharged at EOS or retired, if eligible, as directed by NAVPERSCOM (PERS-95). The supporting NRA may forward the NAVPERS 1070/613 entries by certified mail to members who are in an MRR status. 204. Temporary/Permanent Disability Retired List (TDRL/PDRL) SELRES members transferred to the TDRL/PDRL require special administrative processing. When the separating activity receives orders from NAVPERSCOM, Disability/Retirement/Limited Duty Branch (PERS-82), transferring a member to the TDRL/PDRL, the separating activity shall take the following actions: 1. Have the member complete DD 2656 Data for Payment of Retired Personnel. 2. Provide Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) with a copy of the member's Annual Retirement Point Record, completed 2-4 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F CH-1 ~M~ DD 2656, and the TDRL/PDRL orders to assist in establishing the member's pay account. 3. Change the member's status in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) to the TDRL/PDRL to ensure eligibility for medical care. 4. Forward the record with TDRL/PDRL orders to NAVPERSCOM (PERS-912) 205. Dental. Dental class III personnel will be placed in a Temporarily Not Dentally Qualified (TNDQ) status for the management and tracking of dental treatment. TNDQ policy is ultimately governed as directed by COMNAVRESFORCOM(NOlM) (see COMNAVRESFORINST6600.5). 2-5 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F CH-1 ~--------------,t~I MAY2013 NAVPERS 1070/613 ENTRY REQUIRED DUE TO CHANGES IN CIRCUMSTANCES THAT AFFECT RESERVE PARTICIPATION Reservists who have changes in circumstances (e.g., administrative or medical) that may affect their Reserve participation will acknowledge their understanding of how to continue to accrue retirement points.

The Navy IRR is a force that consists of personnel who must fulfill their MSO under 10 U.S.C., 651, members fulfilling a service obligation incurred via contract, and those who have fulfilled their MSO but voluntarily remain in the IRR. The IRR is composed of the Active Status Pool (ASP) and the Volunteer Training Unit (VTU) (see figure 1-1). Reservists in this category are on the RASL and are subject to involuntary recall to Active Duty per 10 U.S.C., 12301(a) and 12302. 1. Active Status Pool (ASP). The ASP is a manpower pool consisting of individuals who have had training and have previously served in the active force or in the SELRES and are serving in a non-pay, non-drill status. Additionally, the ASP includes personnel participating in officer training programs, the Armed Forces Health Professions Scholarship and Financial Assistance Program (AFHPS/FAP), and the Merchant Marine Individual Ready Reserve Group (MMIRRG). NAVPERSCOM (PERS-93) is responsible for ASP management and screening. a. Of note, the MMIRRG is composed of a corps of actively sailing officers who are trained to operate merchant ships as Navy Auxiliaries and of a shore-side cadre assigned to Navy activities that support strategic sealift readiness. It augments the basic sealift capability necessary to meet defense requirements. b. COMNAVRESFORCOM (N14) is responsible for the management, training, and general good order and discipline of the MMIRRG under the guidance of OPNAVINST 1534.1B, COMNAVRESFORCOMINST 1534.1, and this instruction. 2. Volunteer Training Unit (VTU). The VTU consists of personnel, organized into units, who are eligible and willing to return to a pay status or personnel not eligible for further pay assignments but who voluntarily drill for retirement points. NOSCs under the cognizance of COMNAVRESFORCOM are responsible for the continual screening and management of their attached VTUs. 3-1 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 302. Applicability and Scope. This chapter applies to all members of the IRR except where specifically stated otherwise. 303. Responsibilities. NAVPERSCOM (PERS-9) is tasked with the overall administration of the IRR. However, each IRR category or program is unique in its composition, purpose, and requirements which necessitate assignment of independent program managers with varying degrees of responsibility as outlined in this chapter. 304. Military Service Obligation (MSO) 1. Every person, enlisted and officer, upon initial entry into a military service, shall serve a minimum of 8 years per DOD Instruction 1304.25. Any portion of the MSO that is not served on Active Duty shall be performed in a Reserve component (i.e., IRR or SELRES) per OPNAVINST 1000.26A. 2. Officers in the IRR who have executed their oath of office have acquired a legal status that continues until discharged through a specific, legally authorized process regardless of MSO (see chapter 10, section 1012). 305. Transfers to/from the IRR 1. COMNAVRESFORINST 1001.5E provides guidance on SELRES transfers into the IRR. 2. All servicemembers separating from Active Duty or SELRES and subsequently transferred to the ASP shall be counseled on their continued military status and their obligations while in the ASP prior to their release. Counseling shall be documented in the members' permanent military service records as a NAVPERS 1070/613 entry (see figure 3-1). Additionally, those active component personnel transferring to the IRR shall pre-register via Navy Knowledge Online (NKO) IRR Community of Practice prior to release from Active Duty. 3. ASP members O4 and below, with the exception of officers who wish to rejoin via the Navy Reserve Command and Senior Officer Non-Command Billet Screening and Assignment Board (APPLY) process, who desire to transfer to a pay, drilling status must contact their local recruiter to affiliate with a SELRES unit. O5s and above must use the APPLY process. See current COMNAVRESFORCOM policy guidance for further information. 3-2 Enclosure (1) BUPERSINST 1001.39F 17 Sep 07 4. IRR members may be authorized release from the Navy Reserve for recall or enlistment in another component or military service as outlined in chapter 7 for enlisted personnel and chapter 10 for officers. 306.
