Appeals are processed in the order of priority established by the HRC Evaluation Appeals Branch.
The Evaluation Appeals Branch will assign the level of priority for all evaluation appeals and notify appellants of the priority level upon preparation and forwarding appeals to the ASRB Agency.
Appellants are responsible for notifying the Evaluation Appeals Branch of any change in their status that would affect the priority.
The Evaluation Appeals Branch will coordinate with the ASRB to establish priorities and update appropriately when priority levels require change based on Department of the Army mission requirements.
