RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 00-02024
INDEX CODE: 137.00
APPLICANT COUNSEL: JESSE LAW OFFICE
SSN HEARING DESIRED: No
Applicant requests his records be corrected to show he elected former
spouse coverage under the Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP). 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 returned
to applicant without action until such time as he submits the proper
documentation to establish former spouse coverage as he was advised to do
in 3 August 2000. (Exhibit B). The advisory opinion was forwarded to the
applicant's counsel for review and response (Exhibit C). 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.
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 Mr. David C. VanGasbeck, Ms. Patricia D. Vestal, and
Mr. Joseph A. Roj considered this application on 6 February 2001 in
accordance with the provisions of Air Force Instruction 36-2603, and the
governing statute, 10, U.S.C. 1552.

In support of his request applicant provided his marriage license and letters associated with his request to enroll his spouse in the SBP program. _________________________________________________________________ AIR FORCE EVALUATION: AFPC/DPPTR recommends the applicant’s request be denied. In this respect, the law governing the SBP provides that a member who is unmarried at the time of his retirement may elect coverage for a newly acquired spouse.
Neither the applicant nor his former spouse submitted a request to change the election from spouse to former spouse during the required time frame. After thoroughly reviewing the evidence of record, we believe that the applicant's records should be corrected to reflect that he elected former spouse coverage under the RCSBP within the required timeframe.
