Director's Message

Greetings from Cleveland! It’s June, and here in Ohio spring has sprung! It’s been a pretty soggy start, but we’re basking in warm summer sunshine after the rain.

We’re working to transform DFAS Retired & Annuitant Pay into an even more customer-friendly environment for you, our retiree and annuitant customers.

It’s important for you to regularly review and update your retired pay account because changes in your life can affect your pay. Please check out our article that highlights important information on how to keep your account current, including the conveniences of using myPay.

If you’re thinking of enrolling or discontinuing SBP coverage during the 2023 Open Season, there are also articles with key points to keep in mind. 

For our Gray Area Retirees, we have helpful information to make the transition to retired pay as smooth and worry-free as possible. See the article on life-changing events during the Gray Area.

Finally, we have a number of articles from our partners with good information to know. Please be sure to check those out as well.

Thank you for taking time out of your day to read about what’s happening and what’s coming up in 2023. We hope that you find the articles in this newsletter informative and useful.

We honor the service and sacrifices made by you and your family. We are proud to serve those who have served, and we wish you and your family a safe and happy summer.
