You get three shots. From NPC:
"Lieutenants: in an active status (USNR-R or USNR-S1) who twice fail of selection to LCDR and have completed the eight-year Military Service Obligation (MSO) will be transferred to the Retired Reserve, if qualified, or be honorably discharged from the Navy Reserve not later than the first day of the seventh month after approval of the Board report which considered the officer for the second time."
continued...
"Lieutenants in all non-FTS designators, who were considered twice for selection to lieutenant commander, but twice failed of selection on the RASL. Such officers may be considered for continuation to allow one additional opportunity for promotion to lieutenant commander on the RASL. "
I know I am a little behind the power curve. What I was asking was how long do you think I would have before I would start getting my first look? I am trying to see how much time I have to work with before I get looked at for O-4. Right now, I am in the process of looking for a community to take me. I apologize for not being specific.
For active duty it's roughly 4-5 years, give or take. Reserves seems to be a bit earlier, but it also depends on community. Each year around Nov/Dec they publish a message showing the in-zone range based on your date of rank, so that's what you'll want to go by.
Here's last year's as an example:
