Payment Methods:

1. Payroll Deductions - You may elect to buy back via bi-weekly payroll deduction. Your total
deposit amount and remaining amount due will be reflected in block 20 of your Leave and
Earnings Statement (LES). Each payment and a year-to-date total will be reflected in the
deductions box of your LES.

2. Check or Money Order - You can submit payment via check or money order as directed in the
military service deposit payment request letter. Your deposit may be made in a single lump
sum or installments.

3. Pay.gov - This option is only available to employees of agencies with DFAS serviced payroll.
In general, if you have a MyPay account, you can use this option. Pay.gov cannot be utilized
until after receipt of notification from your payroll office indicating the amount due. Specific
information from the notification letter (database and employee ID) is required to complete the
form. Payment options include debit cards, checking/saving accounts and PayPal (linked to
checking and saving accounts). To quickly and securely submit a payment online,
visit Pay.gov here.

Military Service Deposit Paid in Full:

In most instances, your payroll office will send you a Paid-in-Full letter after you have paid your Military
Service Deposit in full. However, on some occasions you may need to request this letter. For
information about requesting a Paid-in-Full letter, select the most appropriate option below:

CIVILIAN EMPLOYMENT VERIFICATION
There are occasions when a business you are working with requires more than your Leave and
Earnings Statement as proof of your income or employment status.

Whether you are applying for an apartment, personal loan, or other assistance, it may be necessary
to have information you provided a financial institution or agency verified.

Non-DoD Employee (e.g. Department of Veterans Affairs)

Please contact the Agency for which the individual actually works.
DoD Employee (includes DFAS)

Requesters must contact the employee for verification of income and/or employment. Employees
must authorize release of this information via MyBiz+. A current Common Access Card is required.
