Military Information
Note: The provisions below apply to the active
duty military member only. They do not apply to the military member's spouse or
dependents.
What
if the military member misses the filing deadline?
A military member may apply for a current year
dividend after the filing deadline (March 31, 2006) if the
military member was eligible for hostile fire or imminent danger pay while
serving on active duty as a member of the armed forces of the United States.
The military member has 90 days after the last day they were eligible for
hostile fire or imminent danger pay to file their late application.
Alaska Statute 43.23.011. If the extension applies, the military member
will be required to submit documentation showing he or she was eligible for
hostile fire or imminent danger pay.
All other military members must file by the March 31, 2006 deadline or have a
power of attorney file on their behalf. The extension applies only to military
members - it does not apply to spouses and dependent minors of military
members. Contact us or your local dividend
office for more information.
What
if I receive a letter from the PFD Division for the military member
requesting information and he or she cannot respond by the deadline
in the letter?
If the military member is not able to respond by the deadline, contact
us or your local dividend office and let us know that the military
member is not able to respond to the letter. We will extend the deadline for
responding to our letter or pend the military member's file until he or she can
respond with information we requested in our letter.
What
if I receive a denial letter from the PFD Division because the
military member had not responded to the division's request for
information?
If the military member is on imminent danger or hostile fire pay and is not able to respond
by the appeal deadline, contact us or your
local dividend information office and let us know that the military member is
not able to respond to the denial letter. We will pend the military member's
file until he or she can respond with information we requested in the denial
letter.
What
if the military member was not able to return to Alaska in 2004 or
2005 to meet the 72-hour rule?
The PFD Division has provisions for waiving the 72-hour rule in certain
circumstances. Click here (.pdf) to

us or your local dividend office for more information.
