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 requirement for all Navy
uniformed and civilian personnel to update/verify their personal information
in the Navy Family Accountability and Assessment System (NFAAS), per
reference (a), no later than 30 September 2022. If a record has been updated
in the system between 1 April 2022 and 30 September 2022, that record is
considered validated for the 30 September 2022 deadline.
a. NFAAS is the system utilized by the Navy to account for personnel and
their families during widespread natural or man-made disasters.
b. Accurate contact information of personnel and family members is
required to facilitate a quick and accurate muster of personnel in affected
areas.
2. Applicability. This message applies to all Navy uniformed personnel
(Active Duty and Reserve), Navy civilians (both APF and NAF), and Outside
Continental United States (OCONUS) contractors.
a. It is mandatory for all uniformed personnel, and all categories of
their dependents to update and verify contact information.
b. It is mandatory for non-bargaining unit civilian employees to update
their contact information. Providing dependent's information is voluntary
but highly encouraged. Failure to provide dependent information may impinge
on receipt of potential benefits, if applicable.
c. It is mandatory for all OCONUS contractors, and all categories of
their dependents to update and verify contact information.
d. Bargaining unit civilian employees are highly encouraged to 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 a disaster and the
subsequent recovery period.
3. Echelon 2 Commanders, Region Commanders and Region Personnel
Accountability Representatives will ensure widest dissemination of this
notice to all subordinate commands, tenant commands and detachments for
action, as required. All Commanding Officers (CO)/Officers-in-Charge (OIC)
will ensure 100 percent compliance for mandatory personnel. COs/OICs shall
contact pertinent Human Resources Offices to request notification of
applicable unions and OCONUS contractors (must provide associated
Unit Identification Code (UIC)).
4. In addition, each command shall institute policies requiring personnel to
review/update their NFAAS data as standard practice during check-in and check
-out. A tool is available in NFAAS to allow Commanding Officer
Representatives (COR) to "pull" personnel into their UIC. In the event of
permanent address or contact information changes:
a. Uniformed personnel, OCONUS contractors, and/or their dependents are
required to update NFAAS.
b. Civilian non-bargaining unit employees are required to update NFAAS,
and their dependents are highly encouraged to update NFAAS.
c. Civilian bargaining unit employees and their dependents are highly
encouraged to update NFAAS.
5. To update contact information, access the NFAAS website
at https://navyfamily.navy.mil/cas/login?service. Login and update member
information under the "My Info" tab, "Contact Information" section, and
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 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. NFAAS 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 app 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. To ensure NFAAS notifications are received via the
app, go to the dashboard, select "Settings" and ensure the "Receive
Notifications" option is enabled.
7. CORs can verify personnel update status using the Reports tab in NFAAS
and selecting "Address Information Update Status Roster Report by UIC."
Column K contains the date contact information was last updated.
8. Points of contact:
a. NFAAS Help Desk at paas@navy.mil.
b. NFAAS Program Manager, MMC Felix Cepedatavarez, at (202) 433-9833
