Stop Loss Payments available to Veterans “Stop-Lossed” between Sept 11, 2001 and Sept 30, 2009

If you or a deceased family member was prevented from separating or retiring between September 11, 2001, and September 30, 2009, because of Stop-Loss, you may be entitled to $500 for each month you were stop-lossed (retained).

YOU MUST APPLY with your respective service no later than October 30, 2010, and apply using the following sites or e-mail addresses:

Stop Loss contact information:

Air Force: http://www.afpc.randolph.af.mil/stoploss/

Army: https://www.stoplosspay.army.mil
or email: RetroStopLossPay@CONUS.Army.Mil
Marine Corps: https://www.manpower.usmc.mil/stoploss
or e-mail: stoploss@usmc.mil
Navy: E-mail : NXAG_N132C@navy.mil
There are requirements you must comply with, but the program is geared to assist you. For instance the Air Force requires a simple 2-page document be completed and attachment of your DD-214 and proof of Stop-Loss. The DoD, however, is allowing statements to be made by the veteran’s chain of command to prove the veteran was retained.
