However, HQDA Evaluations Policy Branch is reviewing the new ACFT requirements and may adjust the forms in the future. (ACFT Entry on Evaluation Reports FAQs)
I haven’t taken an APFT since 2019. MILPER Message 22-099 says to use Army Directive 2022-05 as a reason for not taking it. I am not scheduled to take the ACFT until December with my unit but my evaluation is due 1 NOV 2022. What do I put in the APFT block for a reason for not taking a record fitness test?
The rater will select “NO APFT” from the drop-down menu and will indicate “No ACFT” in the comments block along with an appropriate explanation as to why you haven’t taken the ACFT yet (e.g. unit has not scheduled a record ACFT, or Soldier has not completed a record ACFT). You could request through your unit to take a record ACFT prior to your evaluation THRU date if you want to have a valid fitness test on your evaluation. (ACFT Entry on Evaluation Reports FAQs)
I’m in the USAR. Do I have to have an ACFT on my evaluation that’s due in December 2022?
No. However, if you take a record ACFT, maintained as a record ACFT entry in the Digital Training Management System (DTMS) after 1 OCT 2022 and prior to the THRU date on your due evaluation, you are authorized to place it on your evaluation. (ACFT Entry on Evaluation Reports FAQs)
I’m an NCO in the AGR and I took an APFT for promotion points purposes in August 2022. Can I still use that date on my NCOER if it has a THRU date of 15 March 2023?
No. APFT dates after 31 MAR 2022 are not to be entered on any evaluation form. Your APFT score is only valid for the Promotion Point Worksheet (PPW) thru 31 MAR 2023 and is not to be entered on the NCOER. Effective 1 APR 2023, the Army will begin using ACFT scores to award promotion points for AGR Soldiers. See ALARACT 046/2022 for more details. (ACFT Entry on Evaluation Reports FAQs)

If the NCOER has been signed, the signatures must be removed before the lock can be removed. For OERs, please use the following instructions to request that the Rater lock be removed by HQDA: Unlock Rater Profile Process.
For both OERs and NCOERs, the Rater lock is automatically removed when an evaluation is returned to the field with the "deduct profile" option.

Rater, Senior Rater, and Supplementary Reviewer
Who writes an NCOER?
The Rater is responsible for writing the NCOER. The Senior Rater is responsible for writing their comments and successive assignments. Unfortunately, it is too common that the Rater or Senior Rater does not conduct counseling as required or document the achievements of the Rated Soldier. In this case, it is sometimes best for the Rated Soldier to give a list of their achievements during the rating period or even draft their own NCOER to give to the Rater. Only you know everything you have done. The Rater can accept, modify, or discard the notes or draft that the Rated Soldier has given.
When is a supplementary review required for an NCOER?
A mandatory supplementary review is required for NCOERs when a senior rater within the rated NCOs rating chain includes an NCO in the rank of SFC through 1SG/MSG, warrant officer in the rank of WO1 through CW2, and Army officer in the rank of 2LT and 1LT. This supplementary review will be performed by a uniformed Army Soldier, senior to the senior rater within the rated NCO’s organization in the rank of SGM/CSM, CW3 through CW5, or CPT and above. This Army Soldier will be designated as a uniformed Army advisor. The uniformed Army advisor will monitor evaluation practices and provide assistance and advice needed to rating officials (as required) on matters pertaining to Army evaluations. The uniformed Army advisor will be identified on the published rating scheme at the beginning of the evaluation period by the commander establishing the rating chain. Mandatory supplementary reviews are also required when no uniformed Army designated rating officials exist in the rating chain. This also includes when the senior rater is other than a uniformed Army Soldier and a rater is an NCO in the rank of SGT through 1SG/MSG, warrant officer in the rank of WO1 through CW2, and Army officer in the rank of 2LT and 1LT. This supplementary review will be performed by a uniformed Army Soldier, senior to the senior rater within the rated NCO’s organization in the rank of CSM/SGM, CW3 through CW5, or CPT and above. This Army Soldier will be designated as a uniformed Army advisor. The uniformed Army advisor will monitor evaluation practices and provide assistance and advice needed to rating officials (as required) on matters pertaining to Army evaluations. The uniformed Army advisor will be identified on the published rating scheme at the beginning of the evaluation period by the commander establishing the rating chain. (PG 18 AR 623–3 • 14 June 2019)
How to add or remove a Supplementary Reviewer
1. Added/Removed by the Senior Rater
2. “Senior Rater” button
3. For OERs, both the “Is a supplementary review required” question and the “Is a uniformed Army advisor available to perform the supplementary review” question must be answered ‘Yes’ in order to access the Supplementary Reviewer tab from the signature page.
4. For NCOERs, the “Is a supplementary review required” question must be answered ‘Yes’ in order to access the Supplementary Reviewer tab from the signature page.
Ratings
Is a Qualified NCOER bad?
No. The NCOER Senior Rater Potential options are Not Qualified, Qualified, Highly Qualified, and Most Qualified ratings. A Qualified is not a bad rating in itself as it allows the NCO room for growth and improvement which can be seen favorably, especially if this is one of your first NCOERs after a promotion or while in a new position. You should know that the average NCO receives a Highly Qualified rating, which means that receiving a Qualified will put you in the lower half of your peers when competing for promotion.
Refuse or Disagree with NCOER
If You Refuse To Sign An NCOER, What is the rated NCO’s signature verifying?
The rated NCO’s signature will verify the accuracy of administrative data in Part I, the rating officials and counseling dates in Part II, the duty description in Part III, and the APFT and HT/WT entries in Part IV. (HRC NCOER FAQ Para 11-1)
If I Disagree With My NCOER, What Can I Do?
Any mention of unproven derogatory information in an evaluation report can become an appealable matter if the derogatory information is shown to be unfounded. (AR 623-3 para 3-20)
For all evaluation reports, if previously reported information later proves to be incorrect or erroneous, the Soldier will be notified and advised of the right to appeal the evaluation report in accordance with chapter 4.
The HQDA receipt of evaluation reports after the required receipt date, or past a suspense date directed by an HQDA selection board, will not be an automatic basis for appealing either the evaluation report or selection board results.
If the information would have resulted in a higher evaluation, the rated Soldier may appeal the evaluation report, and rating officials may provide input to support this point (see DA Pam 623–3).
If new favorable information potentially resulting in a higher evaluation is discovered by the Soldier, he or she may appeal the evaluation report based on the new information in accordance with the appeal policy stated in chapter 4 and procedures in DA Pam 623–3.
An appellant who perceives that an evaluation report is inaccurate in some way has the right to appeal for redress to the appropriate agency.
Appealing an evaluation report on the sole basis of a self-authored statement of disagreement will not be successful.
If I Wasn't Counseled For Negative Remarks On My NCOER, Can I Appeal?
Although the support or form is an official document covered by regulation, it will not become part of the official file used by selection boards or career managers. Failure to comply with any or all support form or counseling requirements will not constitute the sole grounds for an appeal of an evaluation report.
Signing and Signatures
When can an NCOER be signed?
14 Days before Thru Date. The NCOER can be signed and dated by each individual in the rating chain up to 14 days before the “THRU” date of the NCOER; however, the NCOER cannot be forwarded to HQDA until the “THRU” date of the NCOER.
a. The supplementary reviewer’s signature and date cannot be before the senior rater’s signature.
b. The senior rater’s signature and date cannot be before the rater’s signature.
c. The rated NCO’s signature and date cannot be before the rater’s or senior rater’s signature.
How to sign an NCOER?
Who signs an NCOER first / NCOER signing order with Reviewer?
The correct order for signing the NCOER is- The Rater must sign first, then the Senior Rater, then the Supplementary Reviewer (If applicable), then the Rated Soldier. The Rated Soldier signs the NCOER last.
What is the NCOER signature order when removing signatures?
Signatures must be removed in reverse order. The NCOER unsign order is (Supplementary Reviewer, Rated Soldier, Senior Rater, Intermediate Rater, and then Rater). Failure to remove signatures in reverse order will result in locking individuals out of the report. Have all individuals re-sign the evaluation and then remove signatures in the proper sequence.
Ensure all users click the “Exit” button when exiting the evaluation/support form. Have the last individual who was in the report open the evaluation and exit using the “Exit” button. Or wait ten minutes, at which time the lock should be automatically removed.
Support Form & Counseling
Where is NCOER Support Form / Where to start an NCOER Support Form?
NCOER Support Forms are created on the EES website. Blank support forms can also be downloaded from Army Pubs. The NCOER Support Form is used during initial and quarterly NCOER counseling. For NCOER Support Form PDF, see NCOER Forms and Regulation section.
What is the NCOER Support Form?
The NCOER Support Form DA Form 2166-9-1A is a counseling form used to develop an NCO and provide information for the NCOER. Each rated Soldier is provided a copy of their rater’s and senior rater’s support forms (or equivalent) at the beginning of the rating period and their completed evaluation report at the end of the rating period. During the rating period, support forms and counseling sessions will aid the preparation of a final evaluation report.
What is an NCOER Counseling?
An NCOER Support Form is used to conduct counseling. The NCOER support form covers Daily Duties and Scope, Areas of Special Emphasis, Appointed Duties, Performance Goals and Expectations, observations of Character, Presence, Intellect, Leads, Develops, Achieves attributes and competencies, and Senior Rater Comments based on their observations for the covered time period.
Who initiates the NCOER Support Form?
The Rater. Any person in the rating chain can create the NCOER Support Form as needed. In some cases, the NCOER Support Form may need to be created by the Rated Soldier if the Rater or Senior Rater does not initiate the form.
Thru Dates and Frequency of NCOERs
How often do you get an NCOER?
Between 90 days and 1 year. Normally, to be eligible for an OER or NCOER, a Soldier will complete 90 calendar days in the same position under the same rater. Nonrated periods are not included in this 90-day period. OERs or NCOERs may reflect a Period Covered on the report that is greater than 1 calendar year (including nonrated time), but the Rated Months entry cannot exceed 12 months (365 rated days).
What is the NCOER Thru date / How to find NCOER Thru Date?
An NCOER is due when the “Thru” date will be 12 rated months (365 rated days) after the arrival or assignment date while performing the same duties under the same rating officials during this rating period. However, if an event occurs that requires the preparation of an OER or NCOER (for example, “Change of Rater”) before the 12 rated months (365 rated days) have accumulated, an OER or NCOER will be rendered with a “Thru” date that corresponds with the event requiring an evaluation. Standard reason for submission codes (for example, code 03, “Change of Rater,” or code 04, “Change of Duty,” and so forth) will apply on these Extended reports that end before the required 12 rated months (365 rated days), even though the period covered on the OER or NCOER may exceed 1 calendar year. The “Thru” date will be determined by the rated Soldier’s circumstances. Each Soldier’s situation must be considered individually, just as each evaluation report must stand alone.
Types of NCOERs
How many NCOERs are there (types of NCOERs)?
There are 8 types of NCOERs. Mandatory evaluation reports include Change of Rater, Annual, Extended Annual, Change of Duty, Depart Temporary Duty, Special Duty, or Temporary Change of Station, Temporary Duty.
