RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 99-00049
INDEX CODE: 137
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING: NO
The applicant requests corrective action that would allow him to
terminate spouse and child coverage under the Survivor Benefit Plan
(SBP) and receive a refund of premiums paid since retirement.
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/counsel for review and response (Exhibit D). As of this
date, no response has been received by this office.
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 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 18 November 1997) permits
retirees a one-year period to terminate their SBP participation after
they have been retired for 24 months. The applicant may disenroll
between 1 November 1999 and 31Â October 2000. For further information,
applicant should contact the Retiree Services Branch (AFPC/DPPTR) at 1-
800-531-7502.
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. Kathy L.
Boockholdt, and Mr. Mike Novel considered this application in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603, and
the governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.
