Submitting the ANSC Form 7035 By Thomas H . Brouillard DSO-HR , 5NR
By far , the greatest number of personnel actions I review and forward to DIRAUX are , unhappily , disenrollments . These are also , by far , the most time consuming for me , for the flotilla commanders and , I dare say , for DIRAUX . The reasons for this are various , but mainly the following :
New DSOs-HR and FCs breaking into their jobs Failure to consult the AUXMAN Failure to consult the D5NR POLMAN
Let ’ s look at some particulars . The requirements pertaining to disenrollments are found in the AUXMAN , Chapter 3 , Section H . 5 , pp . 3-54 to 3-56 and the POLMAN , Chapter 2 , Section A . 2 , pp . 2-3 to 2-15 . Some important highlights are as follows :
Only the DIRAUX can disenroll members ; Auxiliarists cannot disenroll Auxiliarists .
Disenrollment Requests must be postmarked or emailed to the DSO-HR by 15 November to avoid possibly having to pay dues for the member for the following year .
The deadline for the DSO-HR to get requests to DIRAUX is 21 December to ensure end of year processing .
Generally , members disenrolling with 15 or more years of cumulative service should be placed in Retired Member Status .
The most common Disenrollment Requests are :
Member Request : Various reasons are given by members . FC and / or FSO-HR should personally communicate with the member to determine if disenrollment is really the best course of action , or if there is some way of retaining the member for the Auxiliary .
Non-Payment of Financial Obligations : Member ’ s failure to pay dues or other financial obligations after repeated attempts to notify him or her over a reasonable period of time .
Retirement : Member has 15 or more years of cumulative service , qualifies , and desires Retired Member status .
Death : Immediate notification should be given to the DSO-HR , so that DIRAUX and the DCO are made aware as soon as possible .
