Needs and Uses: The Secretary of 

Defense is authorized to provide 

financial help to eligible homeowners 

serving or employed at or near military 

installations which were ordered closed 

or partially closed, realigned or were 

ordered to reduce the scope of 

operations. The Department of the Army 

acts as executive agent for DoD in 

administering the program for all 

military departments. Before benefits 

can be paid, certain conditions must be 

met. 

Eligible homeowners use the DD Form 

1607, ‘‘Application for Homeowners

reviewed by a department personnel 

office, military or civilian, for 

verification of service or employment 

and mailed to the appropriate office of

Act funds dedicated to helping military 

families and DoD civilians who recently 

sold their homes at a loss. The 

expanded program will assist families 

forced to relocate due to base closures 

or normal assignment rotations. But, the 

most important aspect is that priority 

access to the funds will go to survivors 

of those killed during deployment, and 

those who were wounded, ill or injured 

during deployment.
