AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS
IN THE MATTER OF: DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2005-02216
INDEX CODE: 128.00
COUNSEL: NONE
HEARING DESIRED: NO
_________________________________________________________________
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:
In the applicant’s request for reconsideration, he requests that he be
provided the opportunity to elect the Career Status Bonus (CSB) option in
respect to his future retirement.
_________________________________________________________________
STATEMENT OF FACTS:
On 27 December 1988, the applicant enlisted in the Regular Air Force. He
continued to reenlist contracting his last enlistment on 2 October 2002 for
a period of five years. He is currently serving in the grade of technical
sergeant effective and with a date of rank (DOR) of 1 May 2001.
The applicant’s 14 years and 6 months of active duty was on 27 June 2002
with a 15-year point of active duty of 27 December 2002.
On 16 May 2005, the applicant made his election for the CSB.
On 23 May 2005, the applicant appealed his case for CSB to the Air Force
Personnel Center (AFPC). The case was referred to HQ AFPC/DPPRC for
review. They concluded the applicant was not eligible for CSB because it
was past his 16 years of Total Active Federal Military Service Date
(TAFMSD).
In an application to the Board dated 18 June 2005, the applicant requested
he be provided the opportunity to elect the Career Status Bonus (CSB)
option in respect to his future retirement.
On 14 September 2005, the Board considered and denied the applicant’s
request. A complete copy of the Record of Proceedings (ROP) is at Exhibit
E.
The Board staff received the applicant’s request for reconsideration, with
attachments (Exhibit F). It appears the applicant’s rebuttal package was
not received by the AFBCMR. In his request for reconsideration he
indicates vital information was not evaluated during the Board’s final
review as documents are not listed in the exhibits on the Record of
Proceedings.
_________________________________________________________________
FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE BOARD:
After again thoroughly reviewing this application and the evidence provided
in support of the appeal for reconsideration, the majority of the Board is
not persuaded the applicant has been the victim of either an error or an
injustice. As noted in our original decision, the applicant completed 14
years and 6 months of active duty on 27 June 2002; however, he made his
election on 16 May 2005, over two years past his eligibility date, thereby
rendering him ineligible for the program. The majority found that the
applicant has not provided persuasive documentation indicating he was never
notified of his eligibility to elect CSB at the 14 years and 6 months
timeframe. AFPC/DPPRR has informally advised the Board that neither the
applicant’s base nor AFPC were able to provide a copy of the CSB
notification letter that was presumably provided to the applicant.
Nevertheless, the majority notes that information and criteria for the
program are readily available through the MPF, DoD and AFPC websites, and
Base Career Advisors. The applicant provides insufficient documentation to
persuade the Board majority regarding what measures he took to research the
program and his eligibility. In view of this finding, the majority again
concludes that the applicant has not established to their satisfaction that
he has been the victim of an error or injustice. Therefore, in the absence
of evidence to the contrary, the majority finds no compelling basis to
recommend granting the relief sought.
_________________________________________________________________
DECISION OF THE BOARD:
A majority of the panel finds insufficient evidence of error or injustice
and recommends the application be denied.

SUBJECT: AFBCMR Application of
I have carefully reviewed the evidence of record and the
recommendation of the Board members. A majority found that applicant had
not provided sufficient evidence of error or injustice and recommended the
case be denied. I concur with that finding and their conclusion that
relief is not warranted. Accordingly, I accept their recommendation that

On 23 May 2005, the applicant appealed his case for CSB to the Air Force Personnel Center (AFPC). The notification should be provided on or before the date a member completes 14 years and 6 months of active duty service. The Board notes if a member has not made an election for CSB by the 16th year of active service, the member will remain in the High- 3/50% retirement plan and is not eligible for the CSB program.

In this case, the applicant did not provide any documentation demonstrating that he exercised due diligence in ensuring these missing citations were filed in his OSR prior to convening of the CY02B board. Since it is the officer’s responsibility to ensure the accuracy of his record, they believe that had he checked his OSR prior to the CY99A and CY02B CSBs he would have noticed the missing citations and taken timely corrective action. ...
