New Employees 

When you report for your first day at work at Headquarters, US Marine Corps, there are many important things that are going to happen. For you, it’s your chance to introduce yourself to your new office, settle into a new environment, and begin important work. However, your “Entrance on Duty” (EOD) is also the moment at which your Human Resources Office will process you into your new, federal position. Doing so correctly will ensure that you begin getting paid, can access your benefits, and receive all DoD identification documents in a timely manner.


In order to help make this happen, here’s what you need to do. The following list contains links to the forms that are required in order to process you into your position. Fill out all the forms in the section that applies to you (New Hire, Student, Transfer, etc.) and bring them with you on your first day. When you arrive, an HR representative will go through your paperwork with you to ensure that it is properly completed. They will then begin the process of generating your first “personnel action" (SF-50).

In addition to these forms, you will not be able to report without proof of citizenship; therefore, you must bring one picture ID IN ADDITION TO one of the following:

  • social security card;
  • birth certificate; or
  • or current, unexpired passport

Please note: If you have recently changed your name due to marriage, divorce, or for any other legal reasons please contact the Human Resources office to ensure your IDs match the name you are being hired under.

You may be required to update your acrobat reader to open some or all of the forms listed below. If so, you should visit the following website to obtain a free update of acrobat reader.
