Dependent Care



Single parents and dual-military couples with dependents have unique circumstances. But that alone will not prevent single or dual activation.

These members must complete a Dependent Care Certification form to certify they have arranged for child care in the event of mobilization. These forms are specific to each service. The Naval Reserve, for example, uses the Family Care Plan Certificate NAVPERS 1740/6, while the Air Force uses AF Form 357, dated August 1995 (EF-V2).

An alternate family member or friend must be designated as a legal guardian. Once mobilized, service members are eligible for on-base child care if they live near a facility.
