Potential Delays Associated With Personally Procured Moves OCT-DEC 2018

Posted on October 9, 2018 Updated on October 7, 2018

From NAVSUP Public Affairs

MECHANICSBURG, Pa. (NNS) — NAVSUP is asking Sailors performing a Personally Procured Move (PPM) during October through December 2018 to be aware of potential impacts to the PPM overall process – from advance payment request to claims settlement.

The software used to validate, reconcile, and authorize payment for Sailors’ PPMs will be upgraded in December 2018. Settlement of PPM claims submitted for reimbursement during November and December may be delayed due to the system being taken offline. All PPM packages submitted will be prioritized based upon the date received and processed accordingly once the system comes back online.

Claim submission scenarios and more details are available online at https://www.navsup.navy.mil/public/navsup/hhg/time_to_move/ppm/.

For questions specific to your individual claim, call 888-742-4467.

2019 Version of Promo Prep Available

Posted on October 8, 2018 Updated on October 7, 2018

Every year after the promotion boards I do a major update of my Promo Prep document. I update images and statistics, check links, and update the appendices. I also add new things, like the reappearance of photos at promotion boards.

I am happy to tell you that the 2019 version is done, and the most recent version of the Officer Record Management Document is posted as well. Both can be found on the Joel Schofer’s Promo Prep page. If you haven’t started updating your record for next year’s promotion boards, you need to start now. It takes a few months.

As always, if you find any issues with the document, contact me.
