Paid-Up Qualification For SBP

DFAS Has Form To Challenge Paid-Up Qualification For SBP On Its Web Site; New Counter On The Retiree Account Statements-For all of you retirees who believe that you have paid into SBP for at least 30 years and you are at least 70 years old, but are still having premiums withheld from your retired pay, a form is now available to challenge DFAS’s finding. DD Form 2656-11 can be found at the DFAS web site by going to www.dfas.mil/retiredpay and scroll down to Paid Up SBP. In your Retiree Account Statement (RAS) there has been added a premium counter that states how many premiums payments DFAS believes remain before you reach paid up status. The season to challenge their conclusions in now (January 1 through June 30, 2009). Now is the time to act.
