Filling Out a Separation Questionnaire

Posted on Updated on

One of my first tasks during my retirement journey is to fill out this separation questionnaire. Note that I couldn’t open with Preview on my Mac, but it worked fine using Adobe for Mac. If the version below gives you trouble, you can find it on this page (it is NPPSC 1900/1):

Largely, it was pretty self-explanatory to fill out. Tips include:

  • If you need to find your official home of record, it can be found in your OMPF on BOL. Here is mine highlighted in orange at the bottom:
  • For question #15, DD 214-1 is for reservists and is N/A for active duty.
  • For question #19, sending your DD 214 directly to your state of residence or the VA can expedite things when you try to access veteran benefits, so I elected to send it.

If anyone else has any tips or tricks for filling this out, please comment below.
