This status includes information on a Servicemember or his/her unit receiving notification of future orders to report for Active Duty.Michael V. Sorrento, DirectorDepartment of Defense — Manpower Data Center400 Gignng Rd.Seaside, CA 93955The Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) is an organization of the Department of Defense (DoD) that maintains the Defense Enrollment and EligibilityReporting 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 Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (50 USC App. ? 501 et seq, as amended) (SCRA) (formerly known asthe Soldiers‘ and Sailors‘ Civil Retief Act of 1940). DMDC has issued hundreds of thousands of "does not possess any information indicating that theindividual is currently on active duty" responses, and has experienced only a small error rate. In the event the individual referenced above, or any familymember, friend, or representative asserts in any manner that the individual was on active duty for the active duty status date, or is otherwise entitled to theprotections of the SCRA, you are strongly encouraged to obtain further verification of the person's status by contacting that person‘s Service. Service contactinformation can be found on the SCRA website‘s FAQ page (033) via this URL: https://scra.dmdc.osd.mil/faq.xhtml#Q33. lf you have evidence the personwas on active duty for the active duty status date and you fail to obtain this additional Service verification, punitive provisions of the SCRA may be invokedagainst you. See 50 USC App. ? 521(c).This response reflects the following information: (1) The individual's Active Duty status on the Active Duty Status Date (2) Whether the individual left ActiveDuty status within 367 days preceding the Active Duty Status Date (3) Whether the individual or his/her unit received early notification to report for activeduty on the Active Duty Status Date.More information on “Active Duty Status"Active duty status as reported in this certificate is defined in accordance with 10 USC ? 101(d) (1). Prior to 2010 onIy some of the active duty periods lessthan 30 consecutive days in length were available. In the case of a member of the National Guard, this includes service under a call to active serviceauthorized by the President or the Secretary of Defense under 32 USC ’? 502(f) for purposes of responding to a national emergency declared by thePresident and supported by Federal funds. AH Active Guard Reserve (AGR) members must be assigned against an authorized mobiIization position in theunit they support. This includes Navy Training and Administration of the Reserves (TARs), Marine Corps Active Reserve (ARs) and Coast Guard ReserveProgram Administrator (RPAs). Active Duty status also applies to a Uniformed Service member who is an active duty commissioned officer of the U.SAPublic Health Service or the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA Commissioned Corps).Coverage Under the SCRA is Broader in Some CasesCoverage under the SCRA is broader in some cases and includes some categories of persons on active duty for purposes of the SCRA who would not bereported as on Active Duty under this certificate. SCRA protections are for Title 10 and Title 14 active duty records for all the Uniformed Services periods.Title 32 periods of Active Duty are not covered by SCRA, as defined in accordance with 1O USC ? 101(d)(1).Many times orders are amended to extend the period of active duty, which would extend SCRA protections. Persons seeking to rely on this websitecertification 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 inducted, but who have notactually begun active duty or actually reported for induction. The Last Date on Active Duty entry is important because a number of protections of the SCRAextend beyond the last dates of active duty.Those who could rely on this certificate are urged to seek qualified legal counsel to ensure that all rights guaranteed to Service members under the SCRAare protectedWARNING: This certificate was provided based on a last name, SSN/date of birth, and active duty status date provided by the requester.
