Howdy folks. I'm new to the IRR and thought I'd start on this years points only to find that NKO and BOL are now CAC only. This is problematic for IRR types. The NPC Site recently posted this on the subject, but does anyone have any visibility on when they will get the access issue resolved?
NPC info below:
INDIVIDUAL READY RESERVE
1. Current changes you need to know. All personnel in the Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) - Active Status Pool (ASP) will be impacted by the recent implementation of Department of Defense (DoD) mandated cyber security measures. A growing number of DoD sites are now only accessible via a Common Access Card (CAC). This includes BUPERS Online and Navy Knowledge Online. The Department of the Navy (DoN) is currently awaiting a DoD engineered solution that will support existing IRR participation requirements.
The Individual Ready Reserve Annual Screening which was formerly found on BOL can now be accessed at:
Individual Ready Reserve Annual Screening (NAVPERS 1080/3)

For access to your Annual Retirement Point Record/Annual Statement of Service History, please contact the Customer Service Center at 1-866-U-ASK-NPC.
2. Organizational structure. The Navy Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) is a force that consists of personnel who must fulfill their Military Service Obligation (MSO) under Title 10, United States Code, 651, members fulfilling a service obligation incurred via contract.
The IRR is subdivided into the Active Status Pool (ASP) and the Volunteer Training Unit (VTU). The ASP is a manpower pool consisting of individuals who have previously served in the active component or in the Selected Reserves (SELRES) and now serve in a non-pay, non-drill status. NAVPERSCOM (PERS-93) is responsible for ASP screening and management. The VTU consists of personnel, organized into units, who serve in a non-pay, drill requirement status. Navy Operational Support Centers (NOSCs), under the cognizance of NAVRESFORCOM, are responsible for the continual screening and management of their attached VTUs.
