RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:	DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2016-02231 COUNSEL:
HEARING DESIRED: NO

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
His first AF Form 707, Officer Performance Report (OPR) (Lt thru Col), section I, Ratee Identification Data, item 8, Period of Report start date be changed to reflect 25 Jun 07 rather than 7 Jun 07.

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
He was ordered on Extended Active Duty (EAD) on 25 Jun 07; therefore, his OPR should reflect the same date. This was an unintentional administrative error that happened through no fault of his own.

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving on active duty in the grade of Captain (Capt).

According to AF Form 133, Oath of Office (Military Personnel), on
11 May 07, the applicant was appointed a second lieutenant in the Reserve of the Air Force (AFR).

According to AF IMT 766, Extended Active Duty (EAD) Order, dated
9 Apr 07, on 25 Jun 07, the applicant was ordered on active duty.
According to a Service Information Sheet, dated 4 May 15, provided by the applicant, his EAD, Total Active Federal Military Service (TAFMS) Date, and Total Active Federal Commissioned Service (TAFCS) Date all reflect 25 Jun 07.

The remaining relevant facts pertaining to this application are contained in the memorandum prepared by the Air Force Office of Primary Responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C.

FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY – PRIVACY ACT OF 1974

AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPS2PE recommends denial indicating that the applicant has not exhausted all available avenues of administrative relief.

In Accordance With (IAW) AFI 36-2406, Officer and Enlisted Evaluation Systems, dated 2 Jan 13, states “if an evaluation cannot be corrected under table 10.2., Correcting Minor Errors on Evaluations, an applicant’s first avenue of relief for correcting an evaluation is through the Evaluation Reports Appeal Board (ERAB), which is accessible via the vMPF/vPC-GR, (see the Personnel Service Delivery (PSD) Handbook for further guidance).

A complete copy of the AFPC/DPS2PE evaluation is at Exhibit C.

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the applicant on 13 Dec 16, for review and comment within 30 days (Exhibit D). As of this date, no response has been received by this office.

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:
1.	The applicant has not exhausted all remedies provided by existing law or regulations.

2.	The application was timely filed.
3.	Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to demonstrate the existence of error or injustice. In this respect, we note this Board is the highest administrative level of appeal within the Air Force. As such, an applicant must first exhaust all available avenues of administrative relief provided by existing law or regulations prior to seeking relief before this Board, as required by the governing Air Force Instruction. The Air Force OPR has reviewed this application and indicated there is an available avenue of administrative relief the applicant has not first pursued. In view of this, we find this application is not ripe for adjudication at this level as there exists a subordinate level of appeal that has not first been depleted. Therefore, in view of the above, we find no basis to recommend granting the relief sought in this application.

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified that all available avenues of administrative relief have not been exhausted; and the application will only be reconsidered upon submission of documentary evidence indicating that said avenues of administrative relief have been exhausted.
