Attachment 15
AIR FORCE DEPENDENCY POLICY STATEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING
I (Cadet’s Name) have been briefed on the Air Force policies
concerning family care responsibility and family care responsibility as an AFROTC retention standard. (A family member is any person over whom I have legal or physical custody or control, or who relies
primarily upon me for their care, maintenance, or support regardless of age). In particular, I understand the following:
a.(Non-contract Cadet) If I am/become unmarried (to include a common-law spouse) or marry a military member, and I have legal or physical custody of
any person incapable of self-care; or, married to a civilian spouse and wish to enlist in the pay grade of E-3 or lower and have legal or physical custody of two or more family members incapable of self-care, I do not meet Air Force
enlistment standards. In such a case, I will be released fromthe AFROTC program. NO waivers are authorized.
b. (Contract Cadet) If I am unmarried (to include a common-law spouse) or married to a military member (including another contract AFROTC cadet),
and become responsible for a family member or family members; or, married to a civilian spouse and enlisted in the pay grade
E-3 or lower and have legal or physical custody of two or more family members incapable of self-care (through birth, marriage, court determination of parental or guardianship responsibility, divorce, or other means), I can continue in AFROTC only if granted a waiver by HQ AFROTC/RRFP. I must create an adequate family care plan in accordance with Air Force
Instruction 36-2908. If I am unable or unwilling to create or maintain
such a family care plan, I will no longer meet AFROTC retention standards. In such a case, I would then be subject to disenrollment from AFROTC for failure to maintain military retention standards. If I am
disenrolled, I will also be subject to recoupment of my scholarship benefits.
That's what I got from some website.
