program will be registered public or community service employers. The
data are submitted by the Defense Manpower Data Center to either the
Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) or the Coast Guard
Finance Center for update of final pay information files. When a member
reaches age 62, the Finance Centers will recompute retirement pay,
adding whatever public or community service employment was validated
during the enhanced retirement qualification period.
Affected Public: Business or Other For-Profit; Not-For-Profit
Institutions; Federal Government; State, Local, or Tribal Government.
