Dd Form 2656 3 PDF Details

In the realm of military benefits, understanding the intricacies of forms like the DD 2656-3 is paramount for those eligible for the Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) and the Reserve Component Survivor Benefit Plan (RCSBP). Designed with a specific window for open enrollment, from March 1, 1999, to February 29, 2000, as delineated by Public Law 105-261, this form serves as a vehicle for service members and retirees to secure financial safeguards for their loved ones. Compiling detailed member and beneficiary information, such as names, Social Security Numbers (SSNs), dates of birth, and marriage details, it underscores the necessity of making informed coverage elections. Options encompass spouse only, spouse and child(ren), child(ren) only, natural person with insurable interest, former spouse, and former spouse and dependent child(ren) of that marriage. Furthermore, it requires specifying the level of coverage chosen, endorsing the plans with member and spouse signatures, and understanding the dire repercussions for false statements. The form also accommodates enrollment premium payment information, elucidates provisions for Reserve Component members, and emphasizes the importance of prompt and accurate communication with financial and personnel centers to ensure proper pay adjustments and premium computations.
