We are aware of delays in processing payments. All affected payments are being actively tracked by the appropriate enterprise systems, and our support teams are working to restore normal processing times. There is no action required on the part of the traveler. We are continuously monitoring the situation and will provide a follow-up communication as soon as we gather more information or when standard payment processing operations resume. TAC has informed us that they are aware of the issue happening to docs stuck at OBLIG SUBMITTED and SPP SUBMITTED.  There may be other issues, but this is two that they are aware of.

FYSA: Once PCS vouchers complete technician review, they route through an auditor prior to being processed for payment. Once audit is complete, anticipate approx. 14 business days for Advice of Payment (AOP) generation in myPay and payment to your account/GTC.

Actions for the Member:
1. File your Travel Voucher within 5 business days of completion of travel per the JTR.
2. Monitor DTS or MyFSS for corrections to your voucher as appropriate and respond as soon as possible.
3. Ensure your email is correct in your DTS and MyFSS profiles to prevent delays in receiving notifications.
4. Communicate with your Detachment as soon as possible if your voucher is not meeting the processing times outlined above.
5. If reimbursement delays will likely cause your GTC balance to become past due, or if you anticipate reaching your credit limit due to back-to-back travel, discuss placing your GTC in Mission Critical Status with your active component GTC monitor as soon as possible.
