The Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940 as currently amendedç•™ reservoirs and members of the National Guard who are called to active duty to postpone or suspend certain civil obligations. Kansan staff writer The act was designed to enable service members to devote full attention to military duty and to not have problems caused by being activated. Chris Forbes, vice president of the Veteran's Administration loan department of Columbia Savings, 910 Kentucky St., said there had been some protest against the act; there was a lot of ignorance about the act and how it applied. "People are calling trying to find out about the rules and to see if the act applies to them," he said. "This act is something that we want people to know about and take advantage of." Tim Gothe, chief of VA loan serving in Wichita, said many people thought the act applied only to VA loans. The act applies to reservists and members of the National Guard. Gothe said. They are eligible for the act's benefits only on active duty, as well as for one to three months after they are discharged. Service members called to active duty have several options for freeing themselves from financial obligations. The act allows the service member to terminate his lease if he or she is called to active duty. There must be a reasonable period, month's rent given to the landlord. A mortgage incurred by a service member before activation cannot be foreclosed. Collection of income tax may be deferred for up to six months after a soldier's release from active duty if the service member's ability to pay has been impaired by military service. Service members can have civil court proceedings suspended until after they are discharged. Service members are not obligated to pay interest of more than 6 percent on loans incurred before they were activated. A service member's private life-insurance policy is protected against lapse, termination and forfeiture for nonpayment for the service member's period of military service plus two years. Information hotline created as resource for reservists By Nedra Beth Randolph Kansan staff writer The reservist information hotline educates military personnel about what they should do if they are mobilized. Staff Sgt. Jeff Kelley, Lawrence senior, set up on the batting asse "I was thinking. 'What am I to do if I get activated?' he said. "I realized if I didn't know, surely the privates in my company didn't know either. I was right." Staff Sgt. Jeff Kelley Kelley said that when a reservoir was called to active duty, a panic set in. Reservists waste precious time wondering what financial responsibilities he or she has. The Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act, which makes financial protections for activated soldiers, has been used since World War II. He said that because it had been such a long time since service members had been activated, medical staff not know what to do if they were. "If you know this stuff before you get the call, it'll save a lot of panic." he said. options would be if he was activated and thought others also might be unsure. Kelley said he wanted the hotline to be a number that reservists and National Gaurd members could use to learn what their options were regarding school and civil obligations. There are many KU students who could be affected by an active duty call-up and might need to use the hotline, he said. The act guards service members against bank foreclosures and other financial obligations. Kelley said there were at least 100 students in his Army National Guard battalion who were students at KU. Maj. Steve Johnson, assistant professor of military science, said some of the reservists in the Army ROTC had asked him about what they should do if they were called to active duty. Jeff Weinberg, assistant vice chancellor for student affairs, said he had been getting calls since last fall about active duty call-ups and how they affected a student's standing at KU. He said the University had a definite policy regarding military call-ups of students. The student should contact the Student Assistance Center for answers to specific questions.
