ATTENTION - E2 USERS

Single sign on (CAC) for E2 is currently causing profiles issues. Please refrain from using and/or creating CAC E2 profiles until further notice. Using the user name and password (historical E2 log on process) should be used at this time, at E2 User ID and password

ETS ERROR

ETS is currently producing an error when creating new accounts or updating user IDs/EMPLIDs to current accounts. We are aware of the issue and working with the contractors to get this resolved as quickly as possible. If a member who does not have an ETS account is needing to book upcoming travel with a departure date within the next 5-7 days, they will need to call the TMC/SATO to make any reservations and insist that the booking be made without a profile.
 

Duplicate Relocations Found in mLINQS from Unauthorized Manual Entries

There have been several duplicate PCS relocations found in mLINQS causing a plethora of issues.

AO’s and/or proxies should NOT be entering relocations manually in mLINQS without contacting PPC first (customer care ticket) as relocations should be processed from DA to mLINQS. Below are the steps to take if a relocation has not processed from DA to mLINQS.

If the PCS relocation has been put in a “ready” status in DA and is not found in mLINQS :

  1. Contact PPC customer care via trouble ticket subject “re-submit to mLINQS” and PPC will manually re-submit this relocation over to mLINQS.
  2. If PPC cannot process this relocation over to mLINQS due to a systems error, we will work with the AO on manual entry.
  3. Relocations input using the legacy process should still submit a ticket to finish those claims using the legacy process calculator method. Only if they have already started using the legacy process.
  4. Any manual input relocations into mLINQS outside of this process will require an AO/proxy re-training and possible revocation of elevated permissions.

RETIRED PAY 

PPC is addressing a processing delay due to systematic issues and a shortage of personnel. This is causing a delay in response efforts for VA offsets, AEWs, CRDP, and CRSC disability. You remain our primary concern. We want to assure you that we are fully committed to resolving these issues promptly and handling your cases with utmost care and accuracy.

SUBJ: MID-PERIOD COUNSELING FOR ENLISTED MEMBERS
A. Enlistments, Evaluations, and Advancements, COMDTINST 1000.2C
1. This ALCOAST updates REF (A) to require rating chains to conduct mid-period counseling for 
Enlisted members and introduces resources available to facilitate performance feedback discussions.
2. Requirements:
a. Supervisors will conduct mid-period counseling with Enlisted members halfway through the marking 
period to discuss performance expectations and provide feedback.
b. Marking Officials will ensure supervisors conduct mid-period counseling as required by the 
Approving Official.
c. Approving Officials will establish a method to conduct and track mid-period counseling.
3. Effective and routine feedback is a critical component of a successful performance evaluation 
and should be used in conjunction with establishing expectations and managing performance. 
Providing feedback to members is an important and necessary part of leadership. Enlisted members 
need to know in a timely manner how they are performing, to include what they are doing well and 
where they need to improve. It is the responsibility of the Approving Official to establish a 
process to conduct mid-period counseling
for Enlisted members.
4. The mid-period counseling session should leave the member with clear performance expectations 
and a review of their current performance. In addition, the supervisor should leave with an 
understanding of the member's personal and professional goals to best support them.
5. While formal evaluations are suspended for members in paygrades E1 thru E3, these members should 
receive routine performance feedback.
a. Mid-Period counseling guides are available to support members and supervisors. The guides are on 
EPM-3's SharePoint page under Training and Resources at: (Copy and Paste URL Below into Browser)
https://uscg.sharepoint-mil.us/sites/psc_spo/psc-epm/epm-3/SitePages/Enlisted-Evaluation-System-(EES).aspx
b. For general questions on counseling best practices or further discussion, please contact EPM-3 
at: HQS-CGPSC-EPM-3-Evaluations@uscg.mil.
6. Questions or changes may be directed to Office of Military
Personnel Policy COMDT (CG-1M1) at: HQS-PolicyandStandards@uscg.mil.
7. These changes are effective immediately and will be incorporated into the next revision of REF 
(A), which will be released within the year. All other policies outlined in REF (A) not specifically addressed within this message remain unchanged.
8. This message will be cancelled on 27 MAR 2026.
