Panel to convene regarding FY22 Reserve HYT By Chief Warrant Officer Juan C. Deliz, Personnel Service Center Reserve high year tenure is a workforce management tool designed to ensure that enlisted reservists maintain throughout their careers. R-HYT has established specific career length of service gateways, called professional growth points. It also promotes personnel flow, compels members to advance in their rating, and allows more consistent training and advancement opportunities for the workforce. All enlisted members in the Selected steady progression Reserve and the Individual Ready Reserve are evaluated for R-HYT. This year, a panel will be held only for reservists in the grades of E-7 and E-8 who will reach or exceed their PGP by Oct. 1, 2021. If not retained or given a waiver, they will be discharged or retired by Oct. 1, 2022. The panel will authorize waivers for those members who display the leadership, accomplishment, performance, conduct, professional skills, growth, participation standards, and adherence to core values. Frequently Asked Questions: 1. I have previously been granted a 30-year time in service (TIS) waiver or a 60-year age waiver. Am I still a R-HYT candidate? No, but you must submit a completed Reserve Retirement Transfer Request, CG-2055A, as directed in the waiver memo. The CG-2055A must be received by CG PSC-RPM no later than six months prior to the end of the approved waiver to ensure time for all administrative steps to be completed. The retirement date must be the first day of the month after the waiver expires. 2. I have earned at least 18 years of service toward a Reserve retirement, but not 20. Am I still a R-HYT candidate if my TIS exceeds my PGP? Yes, but you will be retained until attaining 20 years of total qualifying service. 3. What service time is calculated for PGPs? Total time in service (TIS) will be used to determine candidacy for R-HYT. TIS is a member’s total military service time (Active and Reserve Components) from any service component. This is determined using pay base date data. 4. How can I find my pay base date (PBD) and calculate my TIS? In Direct Access, select Employee module, then Tasks, and then My Member Info. Select the Create Report button. When the report is generated, the PBD can be found in the Service Dates section. To calculate TIS for R-HYT, determine the time between your PBD and Sept. 30, 2021. To find the current total Time in Service (TIS), view TIS calculation under the My Readiness tab in Coast Guard Business Intelligence. Within the Personal tab, select Skills, then My Time. Various service calculations are available in this section. 5. Is TIS the same service time calculation as total qualifying service time? No, TQS is the “good years” of service toward a non-regular (Reserve) retirement. TQS is visible on My Reserve Points Statement in Direct Access. 6. I am a R-HYT candidate and am taking the Reserve service wide exam in October; if I advance, which PGP will I fall under? If a member is advanced to the next higher pay grade on or before April 1, they may be retained unless they exceed the R-HYT PGP for the pay grade to which they are advanced. 7. How do I submit a R-HYT waiver request? All eligible enlisted reservists in paygrades E-7 and E-8 will automatically be paneled, so no individual PGP waiver requests are required. However, R-HYT candidates are encouraged to submit a communication to the panel using the guidelines in PSCINST 1401.2, paragraph 9.f. 8. I am a R-HYT candidate and who took the October 2021 RSWE, will I still be separated or retired Oct. 1, 2022? 2022 R-HYT candidates that have not advanced by May 1, 2022, or have not received a PGP waiver, will be removed from the advancement eligibility list and separated or retired no later than Oct. 1, 2022. This allows the service and members sufficient time for processing administrative actions for separations, retirements, and assignments. 9. How do I submit a retirement request if I am a R-HYT candidate? If you qualify for a Reserve retirement, submit a Reserve Retirement Transfer Request (CG-2055A), through your command, to [email protected] before May 1, 2021. 10. I’ve been selected for a Reserve commissioning program, does R-HYT still apply to me? HYT candidates selected for and awaiting appointment to officer or warrant grade will be excluded from R-HYT during the promotion year of selection. 11. If I am a R-HYT candidate, how will I be notified? We will release an ALCGRSV when the R-HYT candidates are posted on the CG PSC-RPM R-HYT webpage. Commands must review their own records to determine if they have any assigned personnel who either should or should not have been included in the list. 12. If I am NOT retirement eligible, how will I be separated? A separation authorization will be forwarded to your SPO for execution. 13. Who can I contact regarding Post-9/11 education benefits for reservists? Jamie Vincent in CG-PSC-RPM-3: [email protected].
