Reserve Officer Status PSC-rpm-1 LT Russ Mayer Reserve Status Manager www.uscg.mil/rpm
Agenda • Terminology • Types of Employee Categories • Types of Duty and Orders • Specifics on each Category • Retirement www.uscg.mil/rpm
Terminology • Commission: • Regular: Earned by Coast Guard Academy graduates and Reserve Officers who integrate • Reserve: All OCS and ROCI graduate • Category: Which part of the Reserve do you belong? Each category as different rights and obligations that you should clearly understand • Duty Type: There are multiple of Active and Inactive Duty, which is related to the above categories. Your rights and obligations change with your duty status and category. www.uscg.mil/rpm
Components • The Coast Guard is split into two military Components: the Active Component and the Reserve Component. • The Reserve Component is split into three Categories: • The Ready Reserve (Selected Reserve and Individual Ready Reserve) • The Standby Reserve (Active and Inactive Status) • Retired Reserve (Pay, Non-Pay, Physical Disabilities) www.uscg.mil/rpm
Reserve Categories - Where are you? *IRR/ASL Members may be assigned to field units & drill for retirement (points) ** In very limited circumstances, Retirees may be recalled to the SELRES and follow SERLRES guidelines, but are not eligible for promotion www.uscg.mil/rpm
Types of Duty • Extended Active Duty (EAD): A contract for longer than 1 year (up to 5 years). • For most discussions, you are no longer a Reservist, including becoming part of the ADPL. • Short Term Active Duty (less than one year): Active Duty for Training (ADT- 2 weeks a year), Active Duty Special Work (ADSW), Title 10, Title 14 • Inactive Duty: Single & Multiple Drills, Readiness Management Period (RMP), and Funeral Honors Duty (FHD) • COMDTINST 1001.28A, The Reserve Policy Manual (1.D.6) www.uscg.mil/rpm
Selected Reserve (SELRES) • Normal Reservist • Officers must earn 50 points each anniversary Year (AY) to get a good year towards Retirement www.uscg.mil/rpm
Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) • Non-Drilling Active Status, good for temporary hardship • Note the Individual, there is no “Inactive Ready Reserve.” • Still need to earn 50 points a year (you still get 15 membership points), weigh in semi-annually, receive Continuity OERs, and compete before Selection Boards. • We do not recommend staying in the IRR for more than a year or so, as this places you at a disadvantage (in terms of OER and participation) at your next Selection Board. www.uscg.mil/rpm
Active Standby List (ASL) • Very few people meet this requirement, please read the applicable section in the RPM and contact us if you think you met the criteria • Still need to earn 50 points a year (you still get 15 membership points), receive Continuity OERs, and compete before Selection Boards. www.uscg.mil/rpm
Inactive Status List (ISL) • Limbo status where you do not: • Earn retirement points (including the 15 points each year) • Gain seniority or compete for promotion • Have most of the benefits of being in the military • You can not stay in the ISL for longer than three years. If you do, you may be honorably discharged from the USCGR (Reserve Policy Manual 8.A.7) unless you’ve earned a Reserve retirement. www.uscg.mil/rpm
Inter/Intra-Category Transfers • Transfers to the SELRES from the IRR, ASL, and ISL are handled in two steps: • Receive permission from PSC-rpm-1 to leave your current category. This is accomplished with a recent physical and be within weight compliance • Find and fill a position through the ISC (fot) or RPM-2 (Assignments) • Transfers from the SELRES to the IRR, ASL, and ISL are handled in one of two ways: • Member Request – Request permission through your Chain of Command, AO, and to RPM-1. • Screenings – Failure to weigh-in, earn 50 points a year, etc may cause you to be transferred from your SELRES position to the IRR or ISL. www.uscg.mil/rpm
Screening • PSC-rpm conducts regular screenings to ensure members are in compliance with their obligations. These obligations include completing your ASQ, weighing in, and earning 50 points. • Failure to meet your obligations may result in your transfer to the ISL. www.uscg.mil/rpm
Mobilization Disposition Board • The MOB Board screens officers of limited mobilization potential or who have been in the ISL longer than three years for an honorable discharge. • Candidates will be told in advance so they can communicate with the Board. www.uscg.mil/rpm
RET-1 vs RET-2 • Regular Retirement – You must complete 20 years of Active Duty • RET-1 is retired, earning pay. • RET-2 is retired, awaiting age 60. • Age 60 will change soon to account for a member’s active duty. • Retirements are handled by PPC (RAS) in Topeka. You must route a retirement request through your chain of command and PSC-rpm before PPC will take action. • You must request retirement. If you do not, you will be placed in the ISL indefinitely. www.uscg.mil/rpm
