Legal Disclaimer

OK Military Search is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), 15 U.S.C. § 1681 et seq. The military active-duty status verification we provide is not a "consumer report" under the FCRA.

You may not use the verification we provide, in whole or in part, as a factor in establishing any individual's eligibility for:

• credit or a loan;
• insurance;
• employment, promotion, reassignment, or retention as an employee;
• housing, rental, or tenant screening;
• or any other "permissible purpose" under the FCRA.

Our service exists for a narrow, lawful purpose: helping you complete a court-required Military Service Affidavit (also called an Affidavit of Non-Military Service) by obtaining the official Department of Defense active-duty status certificate. Using the result for any prohibited purpose violates these terms and may violate federal law.

The DoD's active-duty status report is available directly from the government for free at the official SCRA website: https://scra.dmdc.osd.mil. If you already have the individual's Social Security Number (SSN) or Date of Birth (DOB), you can run that search yourself at no cost.

What you pay us $22 for is the professional locating (skip-trace) service, the licensed investigative work, and the convenience of having the search run on your behalf — not for the government record itself, which the government does not charge for. Most of our customers come to us precisely because they lack the SSN or DOB needed to use the free government tool. Learn more on our How It Works and About pages.

The active-duty status determination comes from the DoD/DMDC database. That data has important limits you should understand:

• It reflects active-duty service from September 30, 1985 to the present, plus certain early-notification (call-up) statuses.
• It establishes the individual's active-duty status on the date the query is run; it does not, by itself, resolve every nuance of SCRA eligibility.
• Accuracy depends on correct identification of the individual. A result is only as reliable as the SSN, DOB, and name matched to that person.

We take care to identify the correct individual, but we cannot warrant that any record is complete, current, or free of error, and we are not responsible for errors in the underlying government database. The certificate speaks for itself as to its date and scope. See our FAQ for common questions about what the certificate does and does not show.

SSNs and other personal information are collected and handled securely and are used only to perform the requested search. For full details on what we collect, how we use it, and how long we keep it, see our Privacy Policy.
