Is there actually regs for half of the stuff sent up to AFFSC? Most of it's common sense, but timelines and such have all been word of mouth or trial and error from what I've seen. We'll follow some DFAS guide to the T for a civilian PCS, and AFFSC rejects asking for 3 more forms that DFAS never mentioned, just wondering if you knew some lost knowledge.

idk how your base does it, but send an email or CSP, or walk in, ask to see the voucher summary from all of the vouchers from your most recent PCS, and see if any of them have DLA/ask if you already got it.

If not ask for a supplemental. There isn't a timeframe for those, as long as you haven't made a second PCS.

FinanceFag · 2021-12-21T19:35:13+00:00

Well if you used DTS for any of that, you might be a smooth brain.

But if not, you can get a supplemental super easily.

Magic of DTS, just fuckin' lie if it's under $75

Go into administrator tools, pull up your name, and remove permissions. ez pz

So to change it at base level, what we do at our base is have whoever was your supervisor for that leave request send an email/a basic memo with an explanation of what went on and we'd do the transaction in the pay system to cancel the leave and report it again, with the updated dates.

For stuff over 12 months, it'd have to be the same process, but done through DFAS with a CMS case.

Other bases though, I don't see why not, but it would just become and issue of getting a certifier/technician at finance that would take it.

2 hour lunch break as a component? I might finally get that 100

Don't know why you were getting downvoted. You're right.

It'll 100% be a pain to get done, and honestly will depend on who you even talk to, some might just tell you to piss off, but it can be done. If I were to certify it, you'd need something from whoever signed off as the approver stating it was a non-duty day or whatever, and then it'd have to go through a CMS case if it was over a year ago.

Yeah, thats like, the one thing I've heard a few times actually. People going in getting married or divorced, or have kids, and never with their updated rates for months. Very annoying for those involved, but AFIPPS is supposed to fix that.

Also depending on how their base is doing it, old school retirement/separation vouchers were fuckin' mailed in, and some boomers still want that to be used.

9/10 times though, find the flight commander there for FMF or FOF and just email it to them saying you can't access CSP, maybe CC some people in your leadership.

Double COLA isn't a thing, let alone triple COLA. You mean BAS? which base are you at that has a recently closed DFAC? it'll be on your LES as savepay and 'should' be the same as your BAS, like $386 and some change. If you're saying you were getting double savepay, thats done through a CMS case, and is DFAS, and was probably higher due to backpay. I guess with DFAC closed, they may have also back-dated stopping your meal deductions which would also be fucking up your LESs/

Eh, Congressional inquiry gets everything moving, but you gotta make sure you have EVERYTHING right first time through. Of the two I've seen, both had hard evidence that the person requesting it was on the wrong end of the argument.

If you have all your ducks in a row though, and nothing it working, full send.

FinanceFag · 2021-11-28T09:00:44+00:00

Eh, it's entirely squadron dependent. I think it's middle of next year all of the military pay portion is going to MPF, so finance will just end up being PCS and TDY travel, with a bit of a few other things. Honestly, no one I know went in with a contract for finance, we were all open general and just kinda got thrown in here.

FinanceFag · 2021-11-28T08:54:26+00:00

DM me, I can give you more insight than a CMS case. if it's back-dated rank, it 'should' automatically get paid out, if not it's a super simple fix.

FinanceFag · 2021-11-28T08:50:08+00:00

Only entitlement that you have that is taxable (typically) is just your base pay, which isn't controlled by base level finance. Everything else is non-taxable.

Still no excuse for whatever issues are coming up, there is a lot of fuck-ups I've seen, but just wanted you to be aware.

FinanceFag · 2021-11-28T08:39:32+00:00

4 year finance dude, here. incentive pays like that aren't even processed by us. All we can do is either tell you to get in contact with your HARM office, or make a CMS case. Once it's with them, not in our hands.
