Upon searching the information data banks of the Department of Defense Manpower Data Center, based

The Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) is an organization of the Department of Defense that
maintains the Defense Enrollment and Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) database which is the
official source of data on eligibility for military medical care and other eligibility systems.
The DoD strongly supports the enforcement of the Service Members Civil Relief Act (50 USC App. §§
501 et seq, as amended) (SCRA) (formerly known as the Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940).
DMDC has issued hundreds of thousands of "does not possess any information indicating that the
individual is currently on active duty" responses, and has experienced a small error rate. In the event the
individual referenced above, or any family member, friend, or representative asserts in any manner that
the individual is on active duty, or is otherwise entitled to the protections of the SCRA, you are strongly
encouraged to obtain further verification of the person's status by contacting that person's Service via the
"defenselink.mil" URL http://www.defenselink.mil/faqlpis/PC09SLDR.htmi. If you have evidence the
person is on active duty and you fail to obtain this additional Service verification, punitive provisions of
the SCRA may be invoked against you. See 50 USC App. §521(c).
If you obtain additional information about the person (e.g., an SSN, improved accuracy of DOB, a
middle name), you can submit your request again at this Web site and we will provide a new certificate
for that query.
This response reflects active duty status including date the individual was last on active duty, if it was
within the preceding 367 days. For historical information, please contact the Service SCRA points-of-
contact.
