    MyCAA Update

    DoD will resume the MyCAA program. The Department of Defense has completed the program review and will be making the necessary adjustments to resume the MyCAA program beginning in October 2010.

    Starting 8 a.m. (EDT) Monday October 25, 2010, Military One Source career and education counselors will have a much more active role in supporting military spouses. In addition to understanding resources available via DoDs financial aid support, they will provide support and assistance to identify and gain access to other federal, state, and local programs. All military spouses of active duty service members will be eligible for career counseling and support.

    New financial assistance guidelines. With a focus on the original intent of the program, the Defense Departments financial assistance program will: Be available to spouses of active duty service members in pay grades E1-E5, W1-W2, and 01-02 Offer a maximum financial benefit of $4,000 with a fiscal year cap of $2,000. Waivers will be available for spouses pursuing licensure or certification up to

    the total maximum assistance of $,4000 Require military spouses to finish their program of study within three years from the start date of the first course Be limited to associate degrees, certifications, and licensures

    These new guidelines reflect a return to the original purpose of the program - to assist spouses of service members in achieving portable careers. These changes also align the program with responsible fiscal planning by the Defense Department to help sustain the program. Additional program details will be posted on the Military One Source Web site when they become available. We encourage you to check the site often.

    Spouses who currently have an active account will be allowed to request financial assistance until Thursday, October 21, 2010. Beginning September 1, 2010, spouses may request financial assistance for classes that have a start date up to January 15, 2011. To ensure adequate time to plan for courses, no career plans will be accepted after August 31, 2010. All currently approved financial assistance documents will be honored.

    Additionally, the review revealed that National Guard and Reserve members must be on active duty for their spouses to receive the MyCAA benefit. Spouses may no longer use the MyCAA benefit when the service member is in an alert or demobilization period. The new eligibility role takes effect immediately.

    The Program will be closed from Friday, October 22 to Monday October 25, 2010, so that we may ensure the infrastructure is in place to implement the new program.

    Military spouses are the backbone for military families, displaying strength of character to be admired by this nation. The Department of Defense remains committed to investing in military families, and appreciates the sacrifice of those who also serve.
