PROCEDURES FOR PROMOTION BOARD CORRESPONDENCE

MAIL YOUR PACKAGE EARLY!!! Correspondence for a statutory promotion selection board MUST arrive in the board spaces (NOT the base mail facility) by the board’s convening date. Next Day or Express Mail does NOT guarantee that your package will make it to the board if you wait until the last minute to send it. We highly recommend that you ensure your package arrives at least a week prior to the board’s convening date. Because of increased security, ALL correspondence sent to NPC is routed through the base's central mail facility. This includes all OVERNIGHT and EXPRESS MAIL from commercial carriers as well as the US Postal Service. Just because the base mail facility signs for a package does not mean it has made it to the board. It will take approximately 2 additional days for correspondence to be checked, sorted, forwarded to the Customer Service Center, and THEN arrive at the appropriate board. Certified and registered mail are also NOT recommended as they can add several days to a letter’s processing time by the US Postal Service.
