Exceptional Family Member Program (EFMP) Disenrollment Chart

Appropriate medical or educational personnel must complete DD Form 2792 and/or DD Form 2792-1 to verify that the condition has improved (or no longer exists). Take the completed forms to the EFMP office in your local Army Military Treatment Facility (MTF). The EFMP office reviews the information and forwards the forms to an Army Regional Medical Command (RMC). If the Family member no longer meets the medical or educational criteria, the RMC unregisters the Family member and disenrolls the Soldier. This process may take several weeks.

If a Soldier does NOT have physical custody of his/her child(ren), (i.e. is NOT the custodial parent) unregistering is appropriate. If the status is joint physical custody, unregistering is not authorized. Conversely, if the sponsor does not have physical custody, the Army EFMP is not authorized to register the Family member or enroll the sponsor in the EFMP.

Because the Family members continue to be listed in DEERS as dependents, a divorce decree, which stipulates custody arrangements, is required for unregistering Family members.

A Family member may no longer be eligible for care if they have reached the age of 21, or no longer meet the college or incapacity guidelines in DODI 1000.13, Identification (ID) Cards for Members of the Uniformed Services, Their Dependents, and Other Eligible Individuals.

Family member must submit a printout or approved DD Form 1172, Application for Uniformed Services Identification Card DEERS Enrollment, obtained from the local ID Card Section to verify that the Family member is no longer DEERS eligible

In the event of the death of a Family member registered in EFMP, the sponsor must present evidence from the ID Card Section of the Military Personnel Division that the Family member is no longer registered in DEERS. The sponsor may also present a copy of a death certificate to the EFMP office in the Army military treatment facility.

Unusual circumstances may involve the emancipation of a minor or incarceration. In situations where the Family member no longer resides with the sponsor because of a court decision, the sponsor should provide an official document that verifies the status of the Family member. A statement from the sponsor notarized by a Judge Advocate General (JAG) stipulating the special circumstances for disenrollment may be required if other supporting documentation is not available.

Contact the local Army EFMP office in the Army Military Treatment Facility (MTF) for assistance with other situations. The Army EFMP office works with the Regional Medical Command (RMC) to determine if disenrollment is possible.
