Enclosure (1) to COMDTINST 4600.14B
legal requests for salary offset. The past due account balance of an account being paid
through salary offset will continue to age. Individuals having their account balance paid
through salary offset are highly encouraged to make additional payments to prevent their
account from reaching charged off status at 180 days past due.
K. Online Statements and Payments. The GTCC bank offers a program for online statements
and payment of account balance. Enrollment in this program is voluntary, but highly
encouraged. Individuals enrolled in this program will also receive a paper statement.
Information on the program can be found on the PSC website.
L. Mission Critical Status. Mission critical status prevents a GTCC from being suspended. The
sole purpose of this status is to allow a cardholder to use the GTCC to pay expenses required
for the return to their permanent duty station. The status can be applied only once during the
life of an account. It can only be applied when a documented operational requirement has
prevented the cardholder from paying the account balance in full. The status is applied for a
very limited time and it does not stop the account from aging. All requests for mission
critical status must be submitted to Commandant (CG-102) for submission to the GTCC
bank.
M. How to Apply for a GTCC. The process for requesting a GTCC is initiated by the member
who must complete the GTCC holder training, the "Government Charge Card Program
Recommendation/Acceptance Statement" and the GTCC application. Application and online
menu tab "Travel" and then the "Government Travel charge Card Program Information
Page" option. This page provides a web link to the GSA cardholder online training.
Government Travel Charge Card (GTCC) Program, COMDTINST 4600.14B, enclosure (2),
contains the Recommendation/Acceptance Statement. The completed documents must be
submitted to the CO for endorsement and then forwarded to the responsible GTCC
coordinator for submission to the GTCC bank. After submission to the GTCC bank, the
GTCC coordinator will ensure the "Government GTCC Program
Recommendation/Acceptance Statement" and GTCC application are inserted into the
cardholder's personal file.
N. GTCC Reinstatement.
1. Under certain conditions the GTCC bank may consider and approve the reinstatement of
a cancelled GTCC. In determining whether or not an account will be reinstated the entire
history of the account will be reviewed. Commandant (CG-102) will not favorably
endorse any request where the history of the account clearly shows continuous financial
irresponsibility on the part of the cardholder. The decision by the GTCC bank is final.
Reinstatement will not be considered if the GTCC was cancelled for one of the following
reasons:
a. The GTCC was used to pay for expenses not directly associated with official
Government travel.
