The correct answer is: A reminder displays when the Submit button is clicked

When a Change MOS PAR is submitted without performing an eligibility check, a reminder displays when the Submit button is clicked. This reminder serves as an important notification to ensure that the user is aware of the oversight and the potential implications of not conducting the eligibility check prior to submission. This process is designed to maintain compliance and ensure that all necessary criteria have been met before proceeding with the change. Performing an eligibility check is critical in the context of personnel actions, as it verifies that the service member qualifies for the change being requested, thereby safeguarding the integrity of the personnel management system. The reminder acts as a safeguard to prompt users to address any outstanding issues before finalizing the submission, helping to prevent potential errors or complications later in the processing of the personnel action.
