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.
