Do we receive remittance advice? If so, where?
One of my (many) gripes is that we can receive payments and have no idea what they’re for. This keeps tracking payments due/paid and calculating tax quite tricky.
However, I appreciate that there probably is a way to access remittances, and that it just hasn’t been shared effectively. Can anyone help?
I’m sure ACP 300 - Finance Manual will have everything you’re looking for
Defence Gateway has a section for pay (VA), there was an ability to get to expenses claims too, but that now appears to have been removed for some reason.
Someone asked this a while ago in VoP and the response was basically look at your bank and the payee is different between VA, for those that get it, and HtD/mileage.
I have spreadsheets and photos of all claims and reconcile them but it is a real pain that they stopped sending the remittance slips
You can check your VA claims through Defence Connect and JPA.
Log in and then go to APPS
Click on the £
Your VA claims for each month will be in there.
The only downside is it doesn’t show you your HTD claims.
VA is fine as that comes via Defence Gateway. My gripe is travel - none of my payments match my claims and I have no idea what has been paid or not and why they don’t match…
Don’t forget HQRAFAC take their ‘cut’ as you contribute roughly 6 miles each HTD claim you make to the cause.
I don’t claim HTD, just mileage for visits/activities.
