        (3) Subject’s naval record 
 
1.  Pursuant to the provisions of reference (a), Subject, hereinafter referred to as Petitioner, filed enclosure (1) with the Board for Correction of Naval Records (Board), requesting that his naval record be corrected to show Petitioner reenlisted for 4 years and was eligible for and received a Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB). 
 
2.  The Board, consisting of , reviewed Petitioner’s allegations of error and injustice on 30 March 2021 and, pursuant to its regulations, determined that the corrective action indicated below should be taken on the available evidence of record.  Documentary material considered by the Board consisted of the enclosures, relevant portions of Petitioner’s naval record, and applicable statutes, regulations and policies. 
 
3.  The Board, having reviewed all the facts of record pertaining to Petitioner's allegations of error and injustice, finds as follows:   
 
     a.  Before applying to this Board, Petitioner exhausted all administrative remedies available under existing law and regulations within the Department of the Navy. 
 
     b.  On 15 March 2016, Petitioner entered active duty, with an end of active obligated service (EAOS) of 14 March 2020. 
 
     c.  In accordance with reference (b) [2 December 2019], this NAVADMIN announces revised selective reenlistment bonus (SRB) award levels and reenlistment policy for Active Component (AC) and Full-Time Support (FTS), updates to the pay for performance pilot (a Sailor 2025  
initiative) and changes to how future SRB award levels will be announced.  SRB award levels and reenlistment policy listed in this NAVADMIN supersede those contained in reference (a).  Increased award levels are effective immediately and decreased levels are effective 30 days after the release of this NAVADMIN. 
 
Reenlistment requests for the listed SRB award levels will be approved based on quota availability.  SRB reenlistment requests for FTS are currently not being accepted.  SRB reenlistment requests for AC must be submitted to the Community Management Support Branch (BUPERS-328) via Officer Personnel Information System (OPINS) or Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) 35 to 120 days in advance of the requested reenlistment date for the Sailor. 
 
Sailors must reenlist within 270-days of their end of active obligated service (EAOS), except in the following cases: Nuclear-trained Sailors, Sailors who must obligate service (OBLISERV) to execute a permanent change of station move will be allowed to reenlist early any time within 1 Calendar Year of the detachment month, but not later than the date of detachment from the last intermediate duty station.  Furthermore, a zone “A” SRB with an award level of 1.0 (30,000 dollar award ceiling) for the EM rate was authorized. 
 
     d.  On 1 January 2020, Petitioner reenlisted for 3 years. 
 
     e.  In correspondence attached as enclosure (2), the office having cognizance over the subject matter addressed in Petitioner’s application has commented to the effect that the request has merit and warrants favorable action. 
 
CONCLUSION  
 
Upon review and consideration of all the evidence of record, and especially in light of the contents of enclosure (2), the Board finds the existence of an injustice warranting the following corrective action.  The Board concluded that Petitioner’s command failed to submit an OPINS/Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS) request 35 to 120 days in advance of the requested reenlistment date.  Furthermore, Member Data Summary listed a 3-year reenlistment, vice 4 years.    
 
RECOMMENDATION 
 
That Petitioner’s naval record be corrected, where appropriate, to show that: 
 
The immediate reenlistment contract (NAVPERS 1070/601) executed on 1 January 2020 was for a term of 4 years, vice 3 years. 
 
Note: This change will entitle the member to a zone “A” SRB with an award level of 1.0 (30,000 dollar award ceiling) for the EM rate.  Remaining obligated service to 14 March 2020 will be deducted from SRB computation. 
 
A copy of this Report of Proceedings will be filed in Petitioner’s naval record.
