This section is used to notify owners of Military Divorce Tips of any updates since the first printing.

Often urls on the internet are deleted or relocated. Please notify us if a link in the book is no longer valid and we will list it below with the new location (if possible) or a new source citing the applicable information.

Updated Information

The next printing will include:

  1. CHCBP rates increased effective for coverage beginning 1 October 2010:
    • $988 per quarter for single rate,
    • $2,213 for family rate.

  2. Survivor Benefit Plan: A former spouse is eligible for the survivor benefit plan while the service member is still on active duty.
    • "The plan includes survivor benefits for the surviving spouse, dependent child, or former spouse of a member who dies on active duty or a Reserve Component annuity on behalf of a member who dies before notification of retirement eligibility, or during the 90-day period following notification of retirement eligibility if member had not made an election or, under certain circumstances, if the member dies in the line of duty during inactive duty training."
      See 420102

    Thus, a decree should specifically state whether a former spouse is eligible for the Survivor Benefit Plan (SBP) prior to retirement, as well as after retirement.

Internet Resources Please notify us if an internet Uniform Resource Locator (URL) referenced in this book is no longer found. As new information is released internet addresses often change. There are two remedies to try if a URL is not available on the internet:

Try using the root of the link. For example, if this book referenced: http://militarydivorcetips.com/updates.html and the internet could not locate the page, one would try http://www.militarydivorcetips which is the root link or home page and then look for a reference on the root link for the topic one needs.

If a site has kept the content of their pages intact but just relocated the content, sometimes a search engine can find the page. To do this, type some key words in the search engine placing them in quotations so the search engine will look for that exact phrase. Often, this will pull up the exact text reference used in this book.
