Time-in-grade (TIG) and time-in-service (TIS) points in active duty enlisted promotion consideration will be eliminated beginning with the Air Force 17E7 master sergeant promotion cycle and all future promotion cycles. The elimination of TIG/TIS points is effective with 17E7, 17E6, 17E5 and 17E9 promotion cycles. Airmen will continue to complete their WAPS testing and have their test scores combined with their other weighted factors. Additional details regarding WAPS and enlisted promotions are available on myPers. Click the Promotion link from the active duty enlisted landing page or select “Active Duty AF Enlisted” from the dropdown menu and search “WAPS.”
