SOURBEER MATTHEW Based on the information you have furnished, the DMDC does not possess any information indicating the individual
status.
Upon searching the info rrration data banks of the Department of Defense Manpower Data Center, based on the information that you
provided, the above is the current status of the individual as to all branches of the Uniformed Services (Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air
Force, NOAA, Public Health, and Coast Guard).
olt
Mary M. Snavely-Dixon, Director
Department of Defense - Manpower Data Center
1600 Wilson Blvd., Suite 400
Arlington, VA 22209-2593
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?ilvmw.defenselink.mil/faa/pis/PC09SLDR.html. 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 aboutthe person (e.g., an SSN, improved accuracy of DOB, a middle name), you can submityour
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 itwas within the preceding 367 days.
For historical information, please contact the Service SCRA points-of-contact.
More information on "Active Duty Status"
Active duty status as reported in this certificate is defined in accordance with 10 USC § 101(d)(1) for a period of more than 30
consecutive days. In the case of a member of the National Guard, includes service under a call to active service authorized by the
President or the Secretary of Defense for a period of more than 30 consecutive days under 32 USC § 502(f) for purposes of responding
to a national emergency declared by the President and supported by Federal funds. All Active Guard Reserve (AGR) members must be
assigned against an authorized mobilization position in the unit they support. This includes Navy TARS, Marine Corps ARs and Coast
Guard RPAs. Active Cuty status also applies to a Uniformed Service member who is an active duty commissioned officer of the U.S.
Public Health Service or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Commissioned Corps) for a period of more than
30 consecutive days.
Coverage Under the SCRA is Broader in Some Cases
Coverage under the S-RA is broader in some cases and includes some categories of persons on active duty for purposes of the SCRA
who would not be reported as on Active Duty under this certificate.
Many times orders are amended to extend the period of active duty, which would extend SCRA protections. Persons seeking to rely on
this website certification should check to make sure the orders on which SCRA protections are based have not been amended to extend
the inclusive dates of service. Furthermore, some protections of the SCRA may extend to persons who have received orders to report for
active duty or to be incur ted, but who have not actually begun active duty or actually reported for induction. The Last Date on Active Duty
entry is important because a number of protections of SCRA extend beyond the last dates of active duty.
Those who would rely on this certificate are urged to seek qualified legal counsel to ensure that all rights guaranteed to Service members
under the SCRA are protected.
WARNING: This certificate was provided based on a name and SSN provided by the requester. Providing an erroneous name or SSN
will cause an erroneoc s certificate to be provided.
