1. LANGUAGE UPDATES IN
IPPS-A. From the HRC Enlisted Language Accession Manager: AHRC utilizes
an automated process to update the Integrated Personnel and Pay System -
Army (IPPS-A) for regular Army, Reserve and Guard personnel. This
automated process uploads Listening and Reading scores for Soldiers who
took a Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT) and the speaking score
for Soldiers who took an oral proficiency interview (OPI). AHRC uploads
DLPT scores to the database within 72 hours. AHRC uploads OPI scores on a
monthly basis due to the complexity of the OPI reporting process.
Submission of an IPPS-A Customer Relationship Management (CRM) case is
the appropriate process for data resolution. Soldiers should allow time
for DMDC’s automated process to work. Visit the following link for more
information. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1225775

S1NET Special Message – 31 Jan 23 - Expansion of the Military Parental Leave Program (MPLP)
1. ALARACT 007/2023,
Expansion of the Military Parental Leave Program (MPLP) Implementation
Guidance, DTG: R 311525Z JAN 23, has been released and is available on
APD, https://armypubs.army.mil/ProductMaps/PubForm/ALARACT.aspx, and posted at the following link on S1NET. Some key points in this ALARACT: https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1225640
a. All active component Soldiers; reserve component Soldiers
performing active guard and reserve duty or full-time national guard
duty for more than 12 months consecutively; and reserve component
Soldiers performing duty under a call or order to active service for
more than 12 months consecutively, referred to collectively in this
message as “Soldiers,” are covered by the parental leave policy.
b. Effective date. The parental leave described in this message
applies to a Soldier when any one of these events occurs on or after 27
December 2022: the birth of a Soldier’s child, adoption of a minor child
by the Soldier, or placement of a minor child with the Soldier for
adoption or long-term foster care.
c. All birthparents (Soldiers who physically give birth) are
deferred or excused for 365 days after the birth of their child from all
continuous duty events that are in excess of 1 normal duty day/shift.
These include, but are not limited to: deployment, mobilization, field
training, combat training center program rotations, collective training
events away from home station (unit of assignment), pre-mobilization
training, unit training assembly away from home station (unit of
assignment), and temporary duty.
d. For the birth parent, 12 weeks of parental leave will be
authorized in addition to and following a period of maternity
convalescent leave from childbirth.
e. Non-birth parents and Soldiers who adopt a minor child or who
have a minor child placed for adoption or long-term foster care are
authorized 12 weeks of parental leave, either taken in whole or taken in
increments during the 1-year period beginning on the date of birth of
the child. Additionally, these Soldiers should expect to deploy with
their units. Unit commanders will consider the significance of the
event and its impact on readiness (for example a critical deployment or
critical training exercise) when considering a Soldier’s request for
parental leave.
f. Soldiers may take parental leave in one continuous period or in
increments. Parental leave may be taken together with ordinary leave.
Soldiers choosing to take parental leave in more than one increment must
request such proposed leave in blocks of at least 7 days each for a
maximum of 12 increments and must submit such requests within the
timelines established by normal procedures and/or the unit commander.
g. Unit commanders are encouraged to approve requests for
incremental periods of parental leave. If the unit commander does not
approve taking incremental parental leave, they must allow the Soldier
to take the full 12 weeks of parental leave in one continuous period.
h. Parental leave also applies to Soldiers who have unused
caregiver leave remaining on 27 December 2022. In such cases, a Soldier
is authorized a total of 12 weeks of parental leave, but any unused
caregiver leave when combined with parental leave must not exceed 12
weeks.
i. See the ALARACT for complete information.
2. Expanded Military Parental Leave Program FAQs are also posted with the ALARACT, and at the following link. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1225651

get diverted to another installation? Does IPPSA automatically diverts

S1NET Message Summary - 26 Jan 23
1. TAG SENDS-DD 214
PROCESSING, LOD/FIB, AFGHANISTAN RETROGRADE AWARDS, AND IPPS-A, 25 JAN
23. From BG, Gregory S. Johnson, The Adjutant General of the Army: This
edition contains updates/information on: Processing DD Form 214’s, LOD
and Fatal Incident Briefs, Transition Services Update, IPPS-A Order
Format, and Effects of Training in IPPS-A With iPERMS. Some key points
follow: https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1224239
a. Processing of DD Form 214s. The Army is experiencing data
processing issues with the Transition Processing System (TRANSPROC)
preventing Soldiers across the Army from signing their DD 214.
Additionally, there may be delays in processing separation orders for
Active and Reserve Component Soldiers. Those impacted should contact
their supporting transition center for any updates regarding their
documents.
b. IPPS-A Order (and Absence Request) Format. There are several
reports that Soldiers were turned away from Housing Offices and/or
Transportation Offices because those organizations had never seen the
IPPS-A orders/absence formats that Soldiers now possess. This system is a
monumental change for the Army. To help us all with the transition,
attached is a document that includes photos of the IPPS-A PCS Orders
format, an Absence request, and a Promotion order.
c. Effects of training in IPPS-A with iPERMS. While it is awesome
that HR Professionals and S1s are conducting IPPS-A training, please do
not use the IPPS-A system for training purposes. Doing so will cause
second and third effects in the Soldier AMHRR (iPERMS). IPPS-A provides
the Operational Training Environments (OTE) for any IPPS-A training, the
links for access are provided with this TAG Sends.
2. INCREASE IN MAXIMUM SGLI COVERAGE IN MAR 23. From Army G-1
Compensation & Entitlements: Public Law 117-209 (Supporting Families
of the Fallen Act) increased the maximum SGLI coverage from $400,000 to
$500,000 for all Service members, including those Service members who
previously declined or reduced coverage. By law, when the increase in
coverage occurs, all eligible Service members will have their coverage
increased to the new maximum. This is to ensure that all Service members
can obtain the new maximum coverage without any medical underwriting.
Service members who previously declined SGLI coverage will be
automatically insured for $500,000 unless they opt out or elect a lesser

S1NET Message Summary - 24 Jan 23
1. A MESSAGE TO THE ARMY
COMMUNITY ABOUT THE SOLDIER REFERRAL PROGRAM. From the Secretary of the
Army, the Chief of Staff of the Army, and the Sergeant Major of the Army
(including a memo from the ASA M&RA): When duty calls, our Army
stands ready. Right now, your Army needs you! We face the most
challenging recruiting environment since the establishment of our
All-Volunteer Force in 1973, but our goal has not changed: to recruit
America's best and brightest volunteers. We call on you to ensure
quality Soldiers serve on our team and continue the legacy of service so
that we remain the best trained, best led, and best equipped Army in
the world. Army mission success depends on our ability to remain manned,
ready, and able to fight and win! We have created a network of
initiatives to help recruit and retain our Nation's best talent,
including two referral incentives driven by Soldier suggestions: https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1223766
a. Army Recruiting Ribbon (see para 2 below). All Soldiers will be
eligible to earn the new Army Recruiting Ribbon for a valid referral of
someone who both enlists and ships to Army Initial Military Training
(IMT). This honor may be awarded up to four times, as indicated with a
numerical device added to the ribbon. Soldiers in the grades of E-4 or
E-5 receive 10 promotion points for each award of the ribbon, up to a
total of 40 promotion points.
b. Early Promotion. Under the Soldier Referral Program (SRP) Pilot,
Soldiers in the grades of E-1, E-2, and E-3 may receive one rank
advancement for providing a valid referral of someone who both enlists
and ships to Army IMT. Soldiers may receive only one advancement for
participation in this initiative throughout their entire careers,
initiated within 60 days of the referred Soldier shipping to IMT.
c. You are our greatest asset. We ask you to tell the Army story-to
tell your story and help other Americans understand the valuable
opportunities our Army has to offer. We remain committed to maintaining
our standards, investing in America's youth, and recruiting the quality
Soldiers our Army needs to fight and win our Nation's wars.
d. Implementation guidance is forthcoming via MILPER message.
2. ARMY DIRECTIVE 2023-01, ARMY RECRUITING RIBBON PROGRAM, 20 JAN 23.
This policy incentivizes support to recruiting efforts through the award
of the Army Recruiting Ribbon and associated promotion points. This
program provides increased recruiting awareness throughout the Army and
encourages Soldiers to embed themselves within their communities to
share their Army stories. It may also help to identify junior Soldiers
who are best suited for recruiting duty as they advance in rank. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1223699
a. Effective immediately, the Army Recruiting Ribbon will be
awarded to all Soldiers who provide a valid referral to the U.S. Army of
an individual who both enlists and ships to Army Initial Military
Training (IMT) (see information on the Soldier Referral Program, para 2
below).
b. Soldiers may receive the Army Recruiting Ribbon up to four times
during their career. Additional awards are identified with a numerical
device added to the ribbon.
c. At each award of the Army Recruiting Ribbon, Soldiers will be
awarded 10 points toward promotion to E-5/E-6. Soldiers may receive up
to 40 total promotion points for four valid referrals.
d. Award Authority. Referrals will be submitted through the chain
of command for approval. The U.S. Army Recruiting Command is responsible
for validating referral and departure of the trainee to IMT. The
Soldier’s battalion commander is the approval authority for award of the
Army Recruiting Ribbon and will provide a memorandum to serve as
supporting documentation of the award.
e. Implementation guidance is forthcoming via MILPER message.

Professional roles and subcates, is there an additional role I need in
order to make this update? https://www.milsuite.mil/book/message/1011089
