This NAVADMIN announces the notice of convening of the FY- 21 Active Duty Officer Lateral Transfer and Redesignation Boards. The lateral transfer and redesignation process is a key tool by which the Navy manages the talents of its officers. It provides flexibility in the Active-Duty officer community manning and improves the Navys return on investment in officer training and education by leveraging the specialized skillsets of officers throughout their careers. As part of the process, applications from qualified unrestricted line, restricted line, staff corps, and non- off-ramp limited duty officers (LDO) will be accepted in line with below schedule. Officers in LDO off-ramp communities requesting to redesignate within their parent community, as well as full-time support and selected reserve officers are not eligible to apply for this board. All officers considering applying for lateral transfer or redesignation through this board are strongly encouraged to familiarize themselves with references (a) through (l). Board results will be posted on the Navy Personnel Command (NPC) Active- Duty Lateral Transfer and Redesignation Board website - https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/career-planning. The FY-21 Active-Duty Officer Lateral Transfer and Redesignation Board schedules are as follows: 15 January 2021 Packages are due for the February 2021 Board 12 February 2021 All addendums (fitness report (FITREPs)/ Awards, etc.) are due 23 February 2021 February 2021 Board Convenes 30 June 2021 Packages are due for the August 2021 Board 13 August 2021 All addendums (FITREPs/Awards, etc.) are due 24 August 2021 August 2021 Board Convenes 2.

Officers who do not meet eligibility requirements in line with references (a) through (c) such as time-in-grade, years-of- commissioned service, or time-in-service must submit a waiver request in addition to, or in conjunction with, their lateral transfer and redesignation application. b. All application packages must include a letter from the current commanding officer, acknowledging their review of the application. It should include their positive or negative endorsement of the officer application and specifically address any waiver requests by the officer. These letters must be dated within 60 days of the application deadline. c.

Those who desire to redesignate within their parent community should submit their requests in line with reference (k) and (l) vice this board. 3. Submit applications and waiver requests (as required), in line with the lateral transfer LOI, which can be viewed on the MNP website. 4. Applications (including signed command endorsement) and waiver requests must be received in line with the dates listed in paragraph 1. 5.
