will run concurrent with the 24- month payback obligation associated with a funded FLS, meaning the  obligation to affiliate with a drilling Selected Marine Corps Reserve  (SMCR)/ Individual Mobilization Augmentee (IMA) billet will be 12  months (vice 24 months) at the conclusion of the ADOS orders.  PDT  orders are dependent on the availability of funds and not guaranteed  to be offered to FLS students. 6.  Orders Processing 6.a.  SMCR, IMA, and Individual Ready Reserve (IRR) officers. 6.a.1.  Orders for Marines in the SMCR will be generated by the Marine’s parent command using the

for IMA and IRR officers is the MARFORRES  customer service center at (toll-free) 800-255-5082 or e-mail the  organizational mailbox at [email protected]. 6.a.3.  Funding for all PME will be provided by MARFORRES AC/S  G-3 Training.  For activated officers attending non-resident courses  or officers on ADOS orders, please contact the POC of this MARADMIN  for further guidance. 6.b.  Active Reserve (AR) Officers 6.b.1.  Web Orders for AR officers attending FLS PME will be  provided by their respective monitor at CMC (RA).  6.b.2.  Temporary Additional Duty orders for AR officers attending non-resident PME will be funded by MARFORRES AC/S G-3 Training. 7.  Selected officers have been screened for eligibility.  Failure  to maintain eligibility or meet orders issuance requirements 90 days prior to the course convening date could result in removal from the course.  8.  Individual Responsibilities 8.a.  Ensure contact information remains current in MOL.  8.a.1.  Per reference (b), officers selected for resident PME shall have orders in hand prior to executing any portion of travel or  movement.  Commencement of travel shall not occur prior to the dates prescribed on the orders.  Travel entitlements will be in accordance  with reference (b). 8.a.2  Officers wishing to decline selection will do so via the  application portal instructions.  Officers requesting a deferral must do so via AA Form endorsed by the first general officer in their  chain of command and forwarded to HQMC (RAM-3) NLT 90 days prior to  the course convening date.  Requests for deferral will be carefully  reviewed on a case-by-case basis.  Final slating of deferred school  seats will be based on the needs of the Marine Corps. 9.  To consult with a Career Counselor via the Career Management
