                            RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
             AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS

IN THE MATTER OF:      DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2003-02748
            INDEX CODE: 128.14
            COUNSEL:  NONE

            HEARING DESIRED:  NO

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

She be reimbursed for premiums paid  on  her  Family  Servicemember’s  Group
Life Insurance (FSGLI).

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

She makes no contentions.

The applicant provided copies of her Leave and Earning Statement (LES) for
the period December 2002 through February 2003

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at Exhibit A.

_________________________________________________________________

STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant is currently serving on active  duty  in  the  rank  of  Staff
Sergeant (E-5).  DPW stated applicant indicated she declined FSGLI prior  to
the 30 December 2002 declination  she  included  as  an  attachment  to  her
request.  On 26 September 2003, DPW notified the applicant  that  they  were
unable to process her application  without  additional  documentation.   DPW
requested a copy of her SGLV 8286A, Family  Coverage  Election  Certificate,
dated prior to 30 December  2002,  and  any  documentation  to  support  her
claim.  As of this date, she has  not  responded.   LES's  for  the  periods
December 2002 through February 2003  show  SGLI  deductions  of  $20.00  per
month.

_________________________________________________________________
AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

DPW indicates that the applicant failed to  respond  to  their  26 September
2003 letter, requesting additional  documentation  to  evaluate  her  claim.
Therefore, DPW recommends denial  based  on  insufficient  documentation  to
support her claim.

DPW evaluation, with attachment, is attached at Exhibit B.

_________________________________________________________________

APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded  to  the  applicant  on  24
November 2003 for review and response.  As of this  date,  this  office  has
received no response.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided  by  existing  law  or
regulations.

2.  The application was timely filed.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been  presented  to  demonstrate  the
existence of error or injustice.  The applicant was properly charged with  a
debt as a result  of  the  passage  of  Public  Law  106-419,  Section  312,
effective 1 April 2001, which automatically  increased  the  level  of  SGLI
coverage.  Since the applicant did not provide  the  additional  information
requested in order to sufficiently evaluate her claim,  it  is  our  opinion
that no basis exists to reimburse the  premiums  withheld.   Therefore,  the
applicant’s request is not favorably considered.

_________________________________________________________________

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified that the evidence presented  did  not  demonstrate
the existence of material error  or  injustice;  that  the  application  was
denied without a personal appearance; and that the application will only  be
reconsidered upon the submission of newly discovered relevant  evidence  not
considered with this application.
