APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: He had a medical condition that prevented him from achieving a passing score on 28 Jun 13 FA. He was not fully aware of his ability to reschedule his FA for later date. The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A. STATEMENT OF FACTS: The applicant is currently serving on active duty in the Regular Air Force in the grade of Senior Airman (SrA, E-4). In a letter dated 13 Jan 15, SAF/MRBR afforded the applicant an opportunity to request that his case be administratively closed to pursue the administrative avenues described in the Air Force evaluation below prior to submitting his application to the AFBCMR. AIR FORCE EVALUATION: AFPC/DPSIM recommends denial. The applicant failed to provide an invalidation memorandum from his Unit Commander and he has not exhausted all available avenues of administrative relief prior to seeking correction of his military records. IAW AFI 36-2905, Air Force Fitness Program dated 21 October 2013, any military member can appeal his/her FA via Wing Appeal and subsequently through the AF Fitness Assessment Appeals Board (FAAB), within two years of discovering an error/injustice. The complete DPSIM 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 Jan 15 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 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 office of primary responsibility 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 she has not exhausted all available avenues of administrative relief prior to submitting her application to the BCMR; and the application will only be reconsidered upon exhausting all subordinate avenues of administrative relief.
