Duplicate Relocations Found in mLINQS from Unauthorized Manual Entries

There have been several duplicate PCS relocations found in mLINQS causing a plethora of issues.

AO’s and/or proxies should NOT be entering relocations manually in mLINQS without contacting PPC first (customer care ticket) as relocations should be processed from DA to mLINQS. Below are the steps to take if a relocation has not processed from DA to mLINQS.

If the PCS relocation has been put in a “ready” status in DA and is not found in mLINQS :

Contact PPC customer care via trouble ticket subject “re-submit to mLINQS” and PPC will manually re-submit this relocation over to mLINQS.
If PPC cannot process this relocation over to mLINQS due to a systems error, we will work with the AO on manual entry.
Relocations input using the legacy process should still submit a ticket to finish those claims using the legacy process calculator method. Only if they have already started using the legacy process.
Any manual input relocations into mLINQS outside of this process will require an AO/proxy re-training and possible revocation of elevated permissions.

RETIRED PAY

PPC is addressing a processing delay due to systematic issues and a shortage of personnel. This is causing a delay in response efforts for VA offsets, AEWs, CRDP, and CRSC disability. You remain our primary concern. We want to assure you that we are fully committed to resolving these issues promptly and handling your cases with utmost care and accuracy.
