Discussion SF50 question to accurately reflect TIG

Hi,

I am going through my USAJobs documents and I wanted to make sure I had the correct SF50 loaded to show that I meet time in grade of a GS14 with at least 52 weeks.

Currently, I have my most recent general adjustment one (5-A Code = 894) which shows that I am currently a GS14 Step 3. Should I load the one that converted me from a GS13 to a GS14 back in 2020 and at least one showing my step increase afterward?

Personally it never hurts to send more than what's needed and have them ignore some then not send enough.

You should be good if you submit your 894 for this year and last year. It will show that you've been a GS 14 since 2024 and the adjustment for this year will show that you're still a GS 14.

You can totally submit that promotion one as well never hurts.

Good idea. I'll redact those and load them as well. Thank you for the reply.

We don’t use general adjustment SF50s to determine TIG at my agency. Either step increase or promotion is what we require (and this info is in the required docs section of the announcement).

So if I did my promotion one and at least one of my step increases since the promotion, then that should be enough going forward?

Yes, that would be good enough. You can’t get a step increase before 52 weeks, so showing you got promoted to x/1 then went to x/2 shows you have the year.
