I am just about to rank up to lt. commander. I have plenty of expertise. the button just remains greyed out and keeps saying officer rank is invalid for promotion. I even added new officers to see if it was just the starting officers I was having the issue with, but it is across the board on all BOFFs

And just to be sure, you are on the stat page for each individual BOFF and using the button at the bottom. And nothing is happening?

BOFFs stay one grade level below your captain.
Lieutenant Commander/Level 10 is Tier 2, your BOFFs will be Lieutenant which is Tier 1.
Once you get your character up to Commander/Level 20 which is Tier 3...
you will be able to promote your BOFFs to Lieutenant.
May I ask, what is it that you are seeing that indicates you might need a higher rank BOFF?
