OMPF SUBMISSIONS AND CORRECTIONS
Your servicing personnel office or Transaction Support Center (TSC) is the primary way to submit documents and changes to OMPF. However, you can submit corrections or missing documents as long as they meet the following requirements:
• If required, the document must be the original signed version
• The document must be actual size
• If the document is a copy, such as an award citation, ensure it is legible and printed in black and white
• Ensure the document does not contain Privacy Act information on another service member
• Do not duplicate information already in your OMPF record
• Your complete SSN should be recorded on the document. If not, handwrite your SSN in the upper left corner
• Faxed or emailed documents are not accepted
For missing EVAL and FITREP corrections contact PERS-32 at: uasknpc@navy.mil - (866) 827-5672 - (901) 874-4881/4882/3313

Your ESR is the official source documenting your pay and personnel information through the Navy Standard Integrated Personnel System (NSIPS). Ultimately, your record is your responsibility. Be sure to regularly look through your documentation in NSIPS and talk with your unit and NRC leadership to ensure your information is correct and up-to-date.
Your ESR is not the same as your OMPF. However, when you reenlist, the applicable documents in your ESR are closed out and submitted to your OMPF. This is important because selection board members only have access to your OMPF record when considering candidates for advancement or special programs. Keep this in mind if there are documents you want board members to consider — unless you recently reenlisted, documents missing from your OMPF will need to be submitted to the board manually.
A good practice is to review your ESR a couple of months prior to reenlisting to ensure the OMPF close out and submission process is delivering correct information. View your ESR data: https://nsipsprod-sdni.nmci.navy.mil
The Navy Awards System is accessed via the BUPERS On-Line website. Your awards are normally recorded on the website without any required input from you, but you should check to see if your awards record is complete and accurate. Visit https://www.bol.navy.mil to view your awards. Talk with your NRC awards coordinator for any changes or submissions.
Reserve Sailors accrue leave while serving on active duty for a period of more than 29 days. At the end of the assignment, Sailors have the option to carry forward unused leave between non-consecutive periods of active duty. A page 13 request to carryover unused leave must be requested through your supported command’s Command Pay and Personnel Administrator (CPPA). If not requested, unused leave by default will be paid out, base pay without allowances minus taxes, to the member. Refer to NAVADMIN 163/12 - MILPERSMAN Article 1050-010 for more information.
OPERATIONAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND LOCAL/NON-LOCAL ASSIGNMENT
Reserve Sailors are essentially managed by two chain of commands — administratively through a Navy Reserve Center (NRC) and operationally through a Reserve unit.
NAVY RESERVE ACTIVITY (NRA) Overarching term to include Navy Reserve Centers (NRC), CNAFR Squadrons or NSW commands totaling over 140 commands across the country. NRAs are self-sufficient to provide all administrative support to attached Reserve Units to include processing Drill pay and personnel transactions. Each NRA is responsible for a specific group of RUICs.
RESERVE UNIT IDENTIFICATION CODE (RUIC) Reserve Billets are grouped and assigned to RUICs for a common unit/mission. RUIC is an overarching term to include UMUICs and TRUICs. A single RUIC could be considered either a UMUIC or a TRUIC depending on the perspective being used. The difference in perspectives depends on the relationship of where the SELRES member chooses to drill (often at an NRA closest to home) and to which NRA their billet/RUIC is assigned. If a SELRES lives near the NRA to which their Billet/RUIC is assigned then the UMUIC and TRUIC maybe the same. If the SELRES lives far the NRA to which their billet/RUIC is assigned then often the UMUIC and TRUIC are different RUICs assigned to different NRAs.
UNIT MOBILIZATION UIC (UMUIC) The RUIC to which Mobilization Billets are assigned. Each UMUIC is assigned to a single NRA. The UMUIC Commanding Officer is the Reporting Senior for all SELRES assigned to the UMUIC’s billets. When a SELRES applies for a billet, the billet is associated with the UMUIC.
TRAINING UIC (TRUIC) The RUIC to whom a SELRES is attached for Administrative Support to include drill pay processing, PFA, medical/ dental, and GMTs. When not traveling to their gaining command and/or to their UMUIC drill site, the SELRES would drill with their TRUIC (often closer to home).
The Navy Reserve model is a hybrid of the Active Duty Navy and National Guard models in that:
1. Like Active Navy, the Billets are set; they are colocated with one of 140 NRAs across the country.
2. Like the Nat’l Guard SELRES are not PCS’d; they choose where to live.
Given that SELRES may apply to any Rating/Designator appropriate billets (regardless of billet location), there is often the case of SELRES and billets differing in location. In these cases, a member may be assigned to a billet at a distant NRA and attached to an NRA closer to home for administrative support; this is the basis for ‘Locally Assigned’ vs ‘Non-Locally Assigned’. A ‘Locally Assigned’ SELRES’s lives near their billet and thus their UMUIC and TRUIC are the same RUIC. Whereas a ‘Non-Locally-Assigned’ SELRES lives distant from their billet and thus has a different UMUIC (Billet located far away) and TRUIC (RUIC located at NRA close to home).
NON-LOCALLY-ASSIGNED-IN (NLAI) VS NON-LOCALLY-ASSIGNED-OUT (NLAO) A SELRES member who is “Non-Locally-Assigned” has two different RUICs with whom to coordinate: Their TRUIC with whom they are attached for administrative support and their UMUIC with whom their mobilization billet is attached.
NON-LOCALLY-ASSIGNED-IN (NLAI) NLAI is the UMUIC CO’s perspective. The member is assigned to one of their UMUIC billets, but ‘Drills’ with another UIC (the member’s TRUIC).
NON-LOCALLY-ASSIGNED-OUT (NLAO) NLAO is the TRUIC CO’s perspective. A SELRES member, who is not assigned to any of the RUIC’s billets but drills with the RUIC for Administrative Support, is NLAO.
