We want to assist with their finances and help educate them on their rights and responsibilities during this difficult time. Your creditors cannot take adverse actions against you during your deployment. Your vehicle cannot be repossessed. You should not forget about your bills while you are gone. Consider giving a trusted family member or friend a Special Power of Attorney to make your payment.
Commands can also send letters verifying duty status as well as requesting deferrals on payments.
This volunteer network can provide a wealth of information and resources. Make sure the service member's will is current. Everyone needs a will regardless of their financial situation. Complete a Special Power of Attorney. All items of a service member's military pay, allowances and entitlements cannot be released to anyone other than the member.
