2. The applicant requests correction of her Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty (DD Form 214) dated 30 June 1993 to reflect the correct amount of separation pay she received.
3. The applicant states, in effect, that she was overpaid $274.44 in separation pay which was subsequently collected from her by the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS). However, her DD Form 214 dated 30 June 1993 was never corrected to reflect the change in the amount of separation pay she actually received.
4. The applicants military records show that she was honorably discharged on 30 June 1993 under the provisions of Army Regulation 635-200, paragraph 16-8, and the Qualitative Retention Program. She had served 9 years, 7 months, and 2 days of total active service and was paid $8,526.67 in separation pay.
5. On 29 March 1995 the DFAS issued a notice to the applicant informing her that she had been overpaid $274.44 in separation pay and that it must be remitted within 30 days of the date of the notice. The applicant signed an authorization for the debt to be charged to her credit card. Therefore the debt was satisfied on 13 April 1995. However, there is no indication in the available records to show that her DD Form 214 was ever corrected to reflect the repayment.
CONCLUSIONS:
1. The applicant was erroneously overpaid $274.44 in separation pay at the time of her discharge from the service. The applicant subsequently repaid the Department for the overpayment; however, her records were not corrected to reflect the correct amount of separation pay she received.
2. Therefore, it would be appropriate to correct the applicants DD Form 214 dated 30 June 1993 to show that she was paid $8,252.23 in separation pay vice $8,526.67.
3. In view of the foregoing, it would be appropriate to correct the applicants records as recommended below.
RECOMMENDATION:
That all of the Department of the Army records related to this case be corrected by showing that the individual concerned received $8,252.23 in separation pay at the time of her separation on 30 June 1993 and that she be issued a DD Form 215 to correct the DD Form 214 issued on 30 June 1993.
