Which form provides Data for Payment of Retired Personnel?

• A. DD Form 214
• B. DD Form 2656
• C. NPPSC 1900/2
• D. DD eFORM 2648

Answer: (B)

Data for Payment of Retired Personnel is the form used to collect and update a retiree’s payment data—banking information for direct deposit, tax withholdings, and any allotments—so the pay system can issue the correct retirement pay on time. This form is specifically designed to capture the personal financial details the payroll system needs to generate and adjust retirement pay and related entitlements. The other forms serve different purposes: the discharge documentation confirms how service ended and is not used to set up payment data; the remaining forms are not standard means to provide retirement payment information in the Pay and Personnel system.
