This advisory is being provided in regards to submission of

of 60 days on 30 September 2019 will be lost unless subject to Special 
Leave Accrual described in paragraph 2A.
  A. Ref A requests commands to identify those members eligible for
SLA and verify that a qualifying condition was met in FY19 for the 
respective members. The commands endorsement (by direction is acceptable) 
should be submitted to DFAS Cleveland by 31 December 2019 via the 
Defense Workload Operations Web System (DWOWS) via their servicing ADSN/PSD. 
Commands that do not have access to DWOWS should contact their local pay
office for submission assistance. 
  B. IAW Ref B, SLA retention limits are increased. This retention 
increase only applies to SLA that is earned from 1 October 2008 to 30
September 2015. SLA that has been authorized, except for SLA earned in

fiscal years. SLA earned during the support of a contingency operation may
be retained for two fiscal years following the fiscal year in which the duty

individual letters for each member to their servicing PSD for processing.
The request must include the member's last name, first name, middle initial,
full SSN, number of days to carry forward for SLA, and the qualifying
