A former spouse is not required to 

submit a request for a deemed election. 

However, if a request for deemed 

election is not submitted within one 

year period described in the previous 

paragraph and the members fail to elect 

former spouse SBP coverage, no former

The proposed form, DD form 2656–10, 

‘‘Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP)/Reserve 

Component (RC) SBP Request for 

Deemed Election,’’ will become the 

prescribed form required for submitting
