RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: 00-02595
INDEX CODE: 137.00
APPLICANT COUNSEL: NONE
SSN HEARING DESIRED: No
Applicant requests his records be changed to show he did not elect 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 denied
(Exhibit C). The advisory opinion was forwarded to the applicant 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 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 1800-531-7502.
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 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.
