RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 98-02759
INDEX NUMBER: 137.04
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
Applicant requests termination of his Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP)
coverage. Applicant's submission is at Exhibit A.
The appropriate Air Force office evaluated applicant's request and
provided an advisory opinion to the Board recommending the application
be denied (Exhibit C). The advisory opinion was forwarded to the
applicant for review and response (Exhibit D). Applicant’s response
to the advisory opinion is at Exhibit E.
After careful consideration of applicant's request and the available
evidence of record, we find insufficient evidence of error or
injustice to warrant corrective action. The facts and opinions stated
in the advisory opinion appear to be based on the evidence of record
and have not been adequately rebutted by applicant. Absent persuasive
evidence applicant was denied rights to which entitled, appropriate
regulations were not followed, or appropriate standards were not
applied, we find no basis to disturb the existing record.
Accordingly, applicant's request is denied.
However, Public Law (PL) 105-85 (effective 17 May 1998) provides an
opportunity for retirees to terminate participation in the SBP
beginning on the second anniversary of their receipt of retired pay.
For further information, applicant should contact the Retiree Services
Branch (AFPC/DPPTR) at 1-800-531-7502 or (210) 565-2273.
The Board staff is directed to inform applicant of this decision.
Applicant should also be informed that this decision is final and will
only be reconsidered upon the presentation of new relevant evidence
which was not reasonably available at the time the application was
filed.
Members of the Board, Mrs. Barbara A. Westgate, Ms. Ann L. Heidig, and
Mr. Mike Novel, considered this application on 25 May 1999, in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603 and
the governing statute, 10 U.S.C. 1552.
