F. After receiving a family support complaint
Your servicing JA can identify what type of support is required, identify if an exception exists, identify if payment in kind is appropriate, and assist in doing the math when formulas must be used in the event of multiple dependent children located in various households. Additionally, they can confirm that the letter you must draft within fourteen days meets the requirements of AR 608-99.
G. Before approving any fundraising activity
Fundraising approval authority is subject to state law and current installation policy. Regardless of whether it is for your SFRG or some other entity, you need to discuss this fully with your JA before taking any action.
H. Before providing (or agreeing to provide) support to
any private organization (PO)
Support to POs is limited by the Joint Ethics Regulation (JER) and subject to the proper approving authority. All POs must be supported equally with no preferential treatment (that is, if you provide support to one PO, you must be prepared to provide similar support to all similarly situated POs).
I. Before collecting monies for departure gifts
Your servicing JA can define a donating group and inform you of the limitations for soliciting in the government workplace. Furthermore, he can make suggestions to ensure there is no improper pressure on subordinates or an appearance of impropriety.
J. Before purchasing certain items with official funds.
Certain items that have become traditional in military culture are not allowed to be purchased with official funds, or have very specific rules governing their purchase. These types of items include, but are not limited to, commander’s coins, T-shirts, food items, and bottled water. Your servicing JA can help you to ensure your purchase is proper.
