SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Involuntary Allotment 
Application; DD Form 2653; OMB Control Number 0730-0018.
    Needs and Uses: This collection of information is in response to 
requests for involuntary allotments. Before responding to a request, 
the responsible government official must have information that 
identifies both the applicant and the member against whom the 
involuntary allotment is sought; proves that the request is based on a 
valid court judgment; shows that the judgment comports with the 
provision of the Soldiers and Sailors Civil Relief Act (SCRA); and 
enables consideration for whether exigencies of military duty caused 
the absence of the member from a judicial proceeding upon which the 
judgment is based. With the exception of information concerning 
exigencies of military duty, an applicant for an involuntary allotment 
must provide required information before a government official can act 
on the applicant's request. The information from the DD Form 2653 is 
used by DFAS officials to determine whether an involuntary allotment 
should be established against the pay of a member

of the Armed Forces. The information is used to provide government 
reviewing officials with necessary information to ensure that both the 
law and due process considerations are accounted for, including 
information sufficient for a decision maker to determine that the 
request is based on a valid judgment and that the SCRA has been 
complied with.
