POLICY ALERTS 

NWU Type III Uniform Issue Will Cease at ECRC

Per NAVADMIN 214/17, the NWU Type III Uniform is the Navy’s daily working uniform. As of 

1 October 2017, enlisted Sailors began receiving clothing replacement allowances. Reserve 

Component Officers, under mobilizations orders, receive a $200 Uniform Allowance at the 

conclusion of their mobilization. Therefore, Expeditionary Combat Readiness Center (ECRC) 

will no longer issue NWU Type IIIs to IAs or Mobilizing Reservists. To facilitate this transition, 

sailors shall report to ECRC with their full NWU Type III sea bag issue. For uniform issue 

questions contact the ECRC Assistant Supply Officer LCDR Scott Vanarsdel 757-341-7413, 

scott.vanarsdel@navy.mil

MNN Manpower Availability Status (MAS) Code Does Not Preclude Mobilization

Manpower Availability Status (MAS) codes are used to assist in determining and tracking the 

pre-mobilization administrative and medical status of Selected Reservists. The MNN MAS 

code is issued to a Reservist when BUMED deems the member Not Physically 

Qualified/Retention Recommended. The definition of MNN was updated in 2017 by CNRFC 

N9 to allow more flexibility for members to mobilize. Members with the MNN MAS Code will 

now be included in the mobilization sourcing process. Starting 01 JAN 2019, members with 

a MNN MAS code will be eligible to volunteer and also be non-voluntarily selected for 

mobilization. If selected, the member’s NRA will be required to submit an AOR waiver to the 

applicable theater for approval or denial. If denied, the NRA shall submit a mobilization 

cancellation request through normal procedures. (Continued)

The IA Joint Report is published quarterly by the USFF IA Policy Division to educate and advise IA Coordinators 

and IA service members. Your feedback and suggestions are welcome. Please submit all questions, comments, 

and concerns to usff.ia.fct@navy.mil
 

DEFINITION OF “IA CONTACT” 

CIACs - USFF received feedback that the OPNAVINST 3060.7C definition of “IA Contact” is unclear. CIACs are required to maintain 

contact with IAs every 60 days and log that contact in NFAAS. The definition of contact in this context is defined as two-way 

communication (a response is sent and received by both CIAC and IA). Additionally, we’re exploring ways to optimize NFAAS 

parameters so IA contact can be logged more accurately. IAs – please respond to your CIAC when they reach out to you. Their 

purpose is to support you!

IA PLAYBOOK LAUNCH OCT 2019! 

USFF and CNRFC collaboratively created an IA Playbook, which is user-friendly, phase based guidance to assist IA Sailors through 

the IA mobilization, screening, and demobilization phases. CIACs should provide this Playbook to IAs upon receipt of orders and/or 

contact with the Sailor. The IA Playbook will be available October 2019 via the IA Website, and published in the TNR Almanac

January 2020. Please contact usff.ia.fct@navy.mil if you would like to know more about the IA Playbook and how it can assist you 

or your team.

 

KEEP YOUR CONTACT INFORMATION UPDATED! 

IAs - in order to provide the best support possible during your deployment, CIACs and IDSSs need accurate IA contact information. 

We ask that you regularly check and update your NFAAS data (including at least one non-military email address). In some cases, 

your military email address may change or you may not have access to your non-military email address; in those cases, please 

proactively reach out to your CIAC so they can log the change appropriately.

 

INTEGRATED LODGING PILOT PROGRAM (ILPP) 

Enforcement of ILPP While attending ECRC

The ILPP directs travelers to use government (DoD Lodging), Public-Private Venture (privatized) or preferred commercial lodging 

at select pilot locations when executing travel. The DoD ILPP is currently in effect in the Norfolk area. This means IAs must attain 

ILPP lodging if government lodging is not available, even if they have a Certificate of Non-Availability. If ILPP lodging options are 

not available, ECRC will provide a command memo authorizing members to occupy commercial lodging other than the ILPP 

program properties. Without the memo, members are responsible for covering (out of pocket) the difference between the ILPP 

rate of $84 per night and the Norfolk area per diem of $93. If you do not receive an ILPP memo from ECRC, you can request a 

memo from the ECRC Transportation Team W_USFF_NRFK_ECRC_N39_TRANSPORTATION_US @navy.mil 

DEMOBILIZATION PAY TIPS

Tips for managing your pay and entitlements after your complete your IA:

 You will not receive your final paycheck until about 30-60 days AFTER you come off active duty orders (or from your last day 

of terminal leave). The delay is due to a PSD/DFAS audit of your account to ensure you are not overpaid; after the audit, you 

will receive your pay. If you do not receive your funds within 30-60 days following your last day of active service, please call

My Navy Career Center (MNCC) 833-330-6622. If the issue is not resolved, please call ECRC N1 Pay and Travel (POC: PS1 

Porter) 757-341-7513 or PSD MILPAY 757-445-4891 so a help ticket can be created.

 You will NOT see your last active duty LES. You will see a PRE-SEPARATION LES but this is just an estimate of your funds until 

the audit is complete. You are not able to get into your active duty MY PAY account once your active duty account closes. If 

you need your LES, you may call DFAS or ECRC N1 Pay and Travel.

 Rollover Leave - if you choose to rollover leave to your Reserve account, it will be automatically paid out and you will have to 

take action to reverse that process (the current pay system is not agile enough to execute this transaction on the front end). 

When the leave is paid out, call ECRC N1 Pay and Travel and request a help ticket to restore your rollover leave balance.

 Your PSD appointment is critical! PLEASE take every minute of your appointment to review every single block of your DD214 

in detail and make sure your leave and all your dates are correct. TAKE YOUR TIME, please don’t rush! It is MUCH easier to 

correct an issue while you are at ECRC.
