36-2603, the applicant's records will be corrected as set forth in the accompanying Memorandum for the Chief of Staff signed by the Executive Director of the Board or his designee. If the retiree does not request a change to former spouse coverage within a year, former spouse coverage may not be established thereafter. Even though SBP premiums continue to be deducted from retired pay following divorce, the former spouse is not entitled to receive the annuity in the event of the member's death.
Both must be exercised within one year after divorce: the retiree may file an election change, or the former spouse may request the retiree be deemed to have made such a change on his or her behalf. If neither the member nor former spouse requests the election change during the one-year eligibility period, former spouse coverage may not be established thereafter. Recommendation: Although there is no evidence of Air Force error, to preclude a possible injustice, we recommend the member's...
