Only eligible officers may communicate with a promotion selection board via the Letter to the Board (LTB) process. NAVADMIN 220/19 announced the introduction of a new application known as Electronic Submission of Selection Board Documents (ESSBD), accessible through MyNavy Portal (MNP). ESSBD improves the speed, transparency, and confidence of receipt over current LTB submission methods, such as hard copy and e-mail submitted letters and related attachments. a. ESSBD provides board candidates with the capability to electronically submit LTBs in a standard, consistent format, with or without attachments and will allow the candidate to see (for content and clarity) exactly what will be delivered and presented to the board. b. To utilize ESSBD, candidates must access document services through MNP at https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/my-record. On-screen instructions will direct the submitter thereafter. c. Submission and subsequent receipt acknowledgement for LTBs submitted via ESSBD or other means does not constitute confirmation of eligibility for the boards to which LTBs are submitted. If required, a full visual user guide is available at https://www.mnp.navy.mil/group/advancement-and- promotion. d. LTBs must be received by Navy Personnel Command no later than 2359 (Central Standard Time(CST)) 10 days prior to the convening date of the respective board, as noted below. Submitters are cautioned to not wait until the deadline date to submit LTBs via ESSBD or other available avenues. Selection To Convening Date Due Date / Time Rear Admiral 16 SEP 24 5 SEP 24 / 2359 CST Rear Admiral (lower half) 17 SEP 24 6 SEP 24 / 2359 CST e. If unable to use ESSBD, the CSCSELBOARD@navy.mil mailbox account is capable of receiving encrypted correspondence in line with Department of Defense policy. If sending a board package from a non-NMCI network (bumed.mil, eu.navy.mil, etc.), please review procedures listed in NAVADMIN 220/19. f. The written communication may call attention to the board any matter concerning the record of the officer that the officer considers important. Written communication may include, as enclosures, correspondence from any individual concerning the eligible officer. Correspondence not originated by the eligible officer, including endorsement to the letter of the eligible officer and letters written on behalf of that officer, must contain a written acknowledgement by the eligible officer that he or she desires such correspondence be presented to the board. Correspondence without such an acknowledgement is considered third- party correspondence and will be returned without being presented to the board. Classified correspondence will not be accepted. 11. Questions regarding LTB submission should be directed to MyNavy Career Center (MNCC) by calling 1-833-330-MNCC (1-833-330-6622/DSN: 882-6622). 12. All officers are reminded of their responsibility to ensure the completeness and accuracy of their official records prior to the convening date of the board. 13. Merit reorder will not be authorized for the subject boards. 14. Released by Vice Admiral Richard J. Cheeseman, Jr., N1.// BT #0001 NNNN CLASSIFICATION: UNCLASSIFIED//
