CRSC Update

The Defense and Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) has begun electronic delivery of Combat Related Special Compensation (CRSC) account statements for military retirees. For those retirees who qualify to receive CRSC, the statements will be available on a monthly basis starting 1 JUL on the DFAS online pay account site at https://myPay.dfas.mil. The account statements provide detailed information regarding continuing monthly CRSC payments, including disability ratings, unemployables, Purple Heart indicators, as well as other entitlement data. Retirees may continue to contact the Retired and Annuitant Contact Center by phone at 1(800) 321-1080, but DFAS officials say the statement should answer most, if not all, questions regarding computation of CRSC payments. Individuals who do not yet have a myPay account or who already have a myPay PIN, but have forgotten their number can call DFAS at 1(800) 390-2348 to get a Personal Identification Number (PIN) for an account or request one online at the myPay site.
