2024 TAX STATEMENT RELEASE SCHEDULE: Know when your tax statements will be available in your myPay account.
The Defense Finance and Accounting Service recently published the Defense Department’s updated process and requirements for submitting Secondary Dependency claims (SDC) for Army and Navy members, and military retirees on the agency website at https://www.dfas.mil/MilitaryMembers/SecondaryDependency.
DON'T BE A VICTIM! Be safe and make sure you’re only using the proper DFAS myPay site (https://mypay.dfas.mil/) to conduct your financial transactions! Scams can rely on what you don't know. Learn more about protecting yourself online and from imposters.
IMPORTANT NEWS FOR RESERVE AND GUARD GRAY AREA RETIREES We created a new kind of myPay account especially for Gray Area Retirees! This account will help you stay connected to important news and updates between the time you retire from Service and the date you’re eligible to receive retired pay. Find out how to log on and update your contact information so you never miss a message.
ATTENTION: AIR FORCE AND SPACE FORCE CUSTOMERS!
