GP also waits to send in the SF97’s to the dod (USMC or whoever) in batches. So your manually filled out form might sit for a month or so before they bother to send it in along with a bunch of others.
I called them before bidding to clarify and GP said the same thing. Their wording is misleading/confusing but you are correct in their intent of the statement.
It's just a clerical error that they sometimes don't let you add the SF97 on checkout.
So about half of the listings on GP have a note saying to add the SF97 to your cart on checkout/payment. Other listings say that it comes with a clean SF97 (that's what my listing said). In any event when I went to checkout there was no option to add the SF97 to my cart.
When I got the email...
I'm dealing with this right now with GP, the girl sent me the blank form and basically said put whatever you want on there for year. I picked the closest year to the manufacture serial number 183xxx - yom 1999. I was tempted to make it a 2021 just for a laugh.
