Awaiting assignment to scroll 2025. When I was mobilized all 2024 everyone got their promotion like in 2 months. Now that I back on on M-day status it seems like they are dragging. So much for return to office and actually do work.
Anyone knows what scroll number we are on? Packet was sent back in March 2025.

I'm not sure exactly what "Awaiting assignment to scroll" means, but taking it as it reads, you indicate that you're not assigned to an O-3 position yet.
As a traditional Army National Guard officer, your promotion is tied to your assigned duty position. Even though you meet the eligibility to be promoted, if you haven't been assigned to position for the next higher rank, you won't have a promotion packet sent forward, and no promotion packet means you won't be scrolled.
The process followed for the promotion of a T10 mobilized officer still largely follows the one normally followed by the state and NGB. Situationally there may be a few different rules, but for officers it still comes back to a true vacancy that the individual can be promoted against (the officer is still on the RASL and not the ADL).
Now, if "Awaiting assignment to scroll" was a misworded comment about waiting to scroll (you did indicate later that your packet was sent back in March), the it comes down to your packet slogging through the bureaucratic process.
For officer promotions below O-3, the SECDEF approves the appointment to the higher rank and that process SHOULD be completed in around three months, barring any issues discovered during the certification screenings or the DMPM Review Board. I emphasized 'should' because according to the latest information (from the end of FY24), it was averaging just shy of six months.
The good news is that due to recent changes in the law to went into effect at the beginning of last year, if your FEDREC takes more than 100 days, then the effective date of the promotion is adjusted to when the FEDREC packet was submitted to NGB by the state.

I was assigned to an O3 slot since March 2024. My packet was sent up to NGB March 2025. So a whole year later.

Your state's S1 (personnel office) may have a specific website or intranet page dedicated to tracking FEDREC status. You might need your CAC to access it. One Reddit user mentions logging into the state G1 portal (ArngG1.ngb.army.mil/SelfService/CareerCenter/Home.aspx)

I am not sure how it works now compared to when I got Promoted to O-3 just after coming back from Iraq in 2005. My packet was put in between title 32 Mob and a Title 10 MOB. I was in the IRR when I got my promotion getting into the USAR Civil Affairs Branch. They like Medical people like you if you get the runaround in the ARNG.
