RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2014-00407
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
Her Enlisted Performance Report (EPR), rendered for the period
of 3 Oct 08 through 2 Oct 09, be placed into her permanent
evaluation record.
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:
In 2013, she noticed her husbands EPR was filed in her
electronic records in the automated records management system
(ARMS) and she had it removed. She was unable to find a
completed/signed copy of her EPR from 2008 through 2009 until
recently.
The applicants complete submission, with attachments, is at
Exhibit A.
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
The applicant is currently serving in the Regular Air Force in
the grade of Staff Sergeant (E-5).
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.
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:
AFPC/DPSIDE recommends denial indicating the applicant has not
exhausted all available avenues of administrative relief prior
to seeking correction of her military record. The Air Force
Board for Correction of Military Records (AFBCMR) will not
consider a case until all avenues of administrative relief have
been exhausted. The application was forwarded to the Evaluation
Report Appeals Board (ERAB) for their review and they determined
to return the request without action, pending additional
supporting documentation from the applicant. If the applicant
wishes to replace the contested report, she must provide the
original corrected report in .xfdl format in support of the
appeal digitally signed by the original rating chain (.pdf
formats cannot be accepted since digital signatures cannot be
verified). The change the applicant is requesting is not for
minor corrections, so she will need to provide a memorandum of
support/justification from the original evaluators who authored
the report which details the error and the need to correct the
applicants evaluation record. The applicant will need to
submit an AF Form 948, Application for Correction/Removal of
Evaluation Reports, with all required supporting documentation,
through the vMPF/Evaluation Appeals found under the Most Popular
Applications.
A complete copy of the AFPC/DPSIDE 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 25 Aug 14 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 compelling basis to recommend
granting the relief sought in this application.
THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:
The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this
application.
