FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request more information on this

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Waiver/Remission of 
Indebtedness Application; DD Form 2789; OMB Control Number 0730-0009.
    Needs and Uses: The information collected on this form will be used 
by the DFAS to determine whether there is indication of fraud, 
misrepresentation, fault, or lack of good faith, and whether it is in 
the best interest of the United States to forgive the debt. It will 
also be used to determine if a debtor should have been reasonably aware 
of the overpayment when it occurred. If a request for waiver is denied, 
the debt collection office (DCO) (usually the payroll office) will 
continue or resume collection if collection action was previously 
suspended. If a request for waiver is approved, then the DCO must 
cancel any outstanding portion of the debt and refund any portion of 
the debt that may have been collected prior to waiver approval.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
