PERSONAL CONTACT INFORMATION//
REF/A/DOC/OPNAV/23OCT14//
AMPN/REF A is OPNAVINST 3006.1, Personnel Accountability in Conjunction with
Catastrophic Events.//
RMKS/1. This NAVADMIN announces the semi-annual update/verification of
personal information in the Navy Family Accountability and Assessment System
(NFAAS) by all Navy military and civilian personnel that must be completed no
later than 31 March 2019. If a record has been updated in the system between
1 October 2018 and 31 March 2019, that record is considered validated for the
31 March
2019 deadline. NFAAS is the system utilized by the Navy to account for
personnel and their families during widespread natural or man -made
disasters. Accurate contact information of personnel and family members is
required to facilitate a quick and accurate muster of personnel in affected
areas. As directed in reference (a), updates of personal information will be
verified as current semi -annually.
2. Applicability. This message applies to all Navy personnel, uniformed
(Active Duty and Reserve), Navy civilians and Outside Continental United
States (OCONUS) contractors in line with the
following:
a. It is mandatory for all military personnel to update and
verify contact information and all categories of dependents.
b. It is mandatory for non-bargaining unit civilian employees to
update their contact information. Providing dependent information
is voluntary but highly encouraged. Choosing not to provide
dependent information may exclude them from receiving potential
benefits, if applicable.
c. It is mandatory for all OCONUS Contractors to update and
verify contact information and all categories of dependents.
d. It is highly encouraged that bargaining unit civilian
employees provide their contact and dependent information on a
voluntary basis, until union notification and subsequent impact and
implementation bargaining takes place (when applicable). Providing
contact information is critical in providing support to DON
civilians and their dependents during the recovery period following
a disaster.
3. Echelon II Commanders, Region Commanders and Region Personnel
Accountability Representatives will ensure widest dissemination to all
subordinate, tenant commands, and detachments for action as required. All
Commanding Officers (CO)/Officers-in-Charge (OIC) will ensure timely and
accurate updates of Navy member and family member contact information as
stated above. COs/OICs will also contact the Human Resources Office to
request applicable union notifications. This requirement also includes OCONUS
contractors (must enter associated unit identification code.)
4. Additionally, each command will institute policies requiring personnel to
update their NFAAS data during check-in and check-out as standard practice.
A tool is available in NFAAS to allow Commanding Officer Representatives
(COR) to "pull" personnel into their UIC. Military members/dependents must
also update NFAAS in any instance in which they make a permanent change of
address. Civilian non-bargaining unit employees must update their contact
information and are highly encouraged to update their dependents information
on a voluntary basis whenever there is a change. Civilian bargaining unit
employees are highly encouraged to update their information whenever there is
a change.
5. To update contact data, utilize the NFAAS site at https
://navyfamily.navy.mil. Login and update member information under the "My
Info" tab, "Contact Information" section, and update sponsor's work location
information. Update family member information under the "My Info" tab,
"Family Member Info"
section. Edit member and family member information as necessary and verify
as current. Personnel are required to input their physical address,
PO/APO/FPO addresses are not authorized. Additionally, users must ensure
that a Cell Carrier is selected from the applicable drop-down list. All
family members enrolled in the Exceptional Family Member Program must be
identified as such.
6. The NFAAS site can also be accessed from any mobile device web browser.
All personnel are encouraged to download the latest version of the NFAAS
mobile app, which provides cognizant resources, checklists, preparation
guidelines, etc. The app also provides a link to the mobile version of the
NFAAS website. Although the application uses the same URL address as the
NFAAS website, when accessed via a mobile device, the site will be optimized
to allow easy viewing and navigation. If logging into NFAAS for the first
time, users should use their primary work e-mail address as the username and
the sponsor's date of birth and last four of the SSN as the password
(YYYYMMDD0000). Otherwise, use the login and password you use when logging
into NFAAS from a computer. To ensure NFAAS notifications are received via
the app, users are to go to the dashboard, select "Settings" and ensure the
"Receive Notifications"
option is enabled.

Reports tab in NFAAS and selecting "Address Information Update Status Roster
Report by UIC." Column K contains the date the contact information was last
updated.
