PSD/ CSD will also verify completion of DD Form 2558 and ensure document is signed by the member. 6. After documents have been reviewed, PSD/CSD will forward the OF-1199I and DD Form 2558 to DFAS-CL via the Defense Workload Operation System (DWOWS) Code JFLS. DFAS CL is responsible for establishing and terminating ITS.GOV accounts (ONLY). OF-1199I documents received by DFAS-CL that are incomplete, illegible or without proper signature requirements will be rejected unprocessed and the PSD/CSD will be notified via DWOWS to resubmit corrections. 7. Upon establishment of the ITS.GOV account, DFAS-CL will notify PSD/CSD via DWOWS That the ITS.GOV account has been created. Only then should the PSD/CSD process the allotment start using the (AD) FID with the following identifying information: INTERNATIONAL TREASURY SERVICE 100 ORCHARD STREET E. RUTHERFORD, NJ 07073-2002 COMPANY CODE: 5553061 ACCOUNT NUMBER: SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER + N1(I.E. 123456789N1) TRANSIT ROUTING NUMBER: 021053065 8. All allotment starts to foreign banks must follow the above procedures.

The member is personally responsible for stopping the allotment to the foreign bank account no later than the beginning of the month in which he/she no longer wants the allotment to go to that account. Stops, increases, and decreases can be performed by the member through their MyPay account. However the initial foreign allotment start (AD01) must be performed by the members servicing PSD/CSD. 10. This new procedural guidance will be reflected in upcoming changes to Part 6 (six) of the Procedures Training Guide (PTG). 11. Request widest dissemination BT
