When are Airmen automatically placed on the career job applicant list?

The 1st duty day of the month during which they complete 35 months on their current enlistment (59 months for six-year enlistees), but no later than the last duty day of the month during which they complete 43 months on their current enlistment (67 months for six-year enlistees).

The automatic placement on the career job applicant list is tied to a specific window in a Airman’s current enlistment. Once you reach 35 months, you’re placed on the list starting on the first duty day of that month, and you stay eligible through the last duty day of the month in which you reach 43 months. For six-year enlistees, that window shifts to 59 through 67 months. This means you’re on the list during that defined period, not earlier, not just after reenlisting, and not starting at the next enlistment year.

So the best answer is that placement begins at the first duty day when you hit 35 months and ends on the last duty day when you reach 43 months (adjusted to 59–67 months for six-year enlistees).

On the last day of the month in which they complete 43 months (67 months for six-year enlistees).

After they reenlist for another term.

On the first day of their next enlistment year.
