MEMORANDUM FOR SAF/MIBR

FROM. HQ USAF/DPRCC
       1040 Air Force Pentagon Washington, D.C. 20330-1040


SUBJECT: Correction of Military Records

      Title 37, U.S.C., Section 427 only authorizes FSA for members serving
in dependentrestricted areas. A member who elects to serve an unaccompanied
tour in lieu of an accompanied tour at a permanent station where the
member's dependents are pern1itted is not entitled to FSA unless waived by
the Service Secretary The waiver authority is prospective only and is
limited to situations in which it would be inequitable to deny the
allowance to the member because of unusual family or operational
circumstances. These circumstances are defined in Department of Defense
Financial Management Regulation (DoDFMR), Volume 7 A, paragraph 270301D as:


1) when certified medical reasons involving family members or terrorist
activity would make it inappropriate for dependents to accompany the
member; or 2) when ships in overhaul make temporary homeport changes.

      XXXXXX met the conditions identified in item (1) above and was
authorized FSA in a letter dated 15 October 1999. However, because the
waiver authority is prospective only, he could not be paid FSA for the
period between 8 May 1999 (his reporting date) and 14 October 1999



      We recommend approval of xxxxxxxx’s request for payment of FSA from
the date of arrival (8 May 1999) at his permanent duty station to the day
before waiver approval (14 October 1999). We recommend his record be
changed to reflect the Secretarial waiver to receive FSA was granted and
effective 8 May 1999.
      The POC for this advisory is xxxxxxxx, who can be reached at DSN 227-
      0683.
