Service members, retirees, annuitants and federal civilian employees of the Defense Department will receive their 2009 income tax statements soon. Persons who receive their pay through the Defense Finance and Accounting Service (DFAS) who use myPay (https://mypay.dfas.mil/mypay/aspx) can gain access to their W-2, 1099-R, 1099-INT, and retiree and annuitant account statements two weeks earlier than those who receive theirs by mail. For example, retirees signed up for myPay were able to view their statements on Dec. 10; mailings were not scheduled to begin until Dec. 16 through Dec. 31. All statements will be mailed by Jan. 29; most DFAS customers will receive theirs earlier.
