RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS
AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS


IN THE MATTER OF: 			DOCKET NUMBER: BC-2015-00142

						COUNSEL:  NONE

						HEARING DESIRED:  NO 



APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:

His records be corrected to reflect his social security account 
number (SSAN) as XXX-XX-XXXX versus XXX-XX-XXXX.


APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT:

His SSAN is incorrect in his military records.  He cannot obtain 
a home loan through the Department of Veterans Affairs because 
his SSAN is incorrect.

The applicant’s complete submission, with attachments, is at 
Exhibit A.


STATEMENT OF FACTS:

The applicant served on active duty from 17 Aug 00 through 
16 Aug 04.

The remaining facts pertaining to this application are contained 
in the memorandum prepared by the Air Force office of primary 
responsibility (OPR), which is attached at Exhibit C.


AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

AFPC/DPSIRP recommends denial indicating there is no evidence of 
an error or an injustice.  Air Force Instruction (AFI) 36-2608, 
Military Personnel Record System, Table A7.1, Note 1 states “Do 
not correct records of former members unless evidence proves the 
SSAN used while serving with the Air Force (AF) was erroneously 
recorded”.  Accordingly, official military personnel records 
cannot be amended after leaving military service unless evidence 
proves it was erroneously recorded while serving with the AF.  A 
review of the applicant’s personnel records reveals his SSAN is 
documented as XXX-XX-XXXX.  As this was the SSAN he presented at 
enlistment, and there was no change to this SSAN during his 
enlistment, it does not appear to have been erroneously 
recorded.  

A complete copy of the AFPC/ DPSIRP evaluation is at Exhibit C.


APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION:

A copy of the Air Force evaluation was forwarded to the 
applicant on 6 Jul 15, for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit D).  As of this date, no response has been received by 
this office.


THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT:

1.  The applicant has exhausted all remedies provided by 
existing law or regulations.

2.  The application was not timely filed; however, it is in the 
interest of justice to excuse the failure to timely file.

3.  Insufficient relevant evidence has been presented to 
demonstrate the existence of an error or injustice.  We took 
notice of the applicant’s complete submission in judging the 
merits of the case; however, we agree with the opinion and 
recommendation of the Air Force OPR and adopt its rationale as 
the basis for our conclusion the applicant has not been the 
victim of an error of injustice.  However, if the applicant 
provides documentation verifying his SSAN prior to entering 
active duty, the Board would be willing to review the 
documentation for possible reconsideration.  Therefore, in the 
absence of evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to 
recommend granting the requested relief.


THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT:

The applicant be notified the evidence presented did not 
demonstrate the existence of material error or injustice; the 
application was denied without a personal appearance; and the 
application will only be reconsidered upon the submission of 
newly discovered relevant evidence not considered with this 
application.
