Sec.  48.302  Substantiating evidence regarding dependency and age of dependents.

    At the time of submitting the election, or prior to retirement, the 
member must indicate his wife's and youngest child birth date as 
applicable to the option elected. At or before the time of his 
retirement, he must submit proof of final dissolution of prior 
marriages, if any, both for himself and his spouse. The age of the 
dependents must be substantiated by a birth certificate or other 
competent evidence. The birth date of a member must be verified by his 
service record. All required substantiating evidence must be at the 
disbursing office which would normally pay the member retired pay or 
retainer pay immediately following retirement so as to permit the 
establishment of accurate pay accounts and to prevent the creation of 
indebtedness or overpayments.
