    • Online Survivor Benefits Reports

    The MyArmyBenefits Survivor section provides both general and individualized benefits information to the survivors of a deceased Service member.

    If you are a surviving spouse or child (or child's guardian), individualized benefits information may be available to you.

    • Online Survivor Benefits Report (OSBR), both initial and interactive, are available to surviving spouses and dependent children of military members who died while on active duty on or after September 11, 2001.
    • Initial OSBR is available to Casualty Assistance Officers (CAOs) and survivors by linking a personal email address to the OSBR. Individuals will then receive an email with a one time use link to view their OSBR(s).
    • Interactive OSBR are normally available anytime after the surviving spouse and children have received their finalized initial OSBR.

    ADVISORY: OSBRs provided on this website are interim estimates based upon available information and military/personal data. The OSBRs are not official nor final determinations. The applicable government agencies (Department of Defense Finance & Accounting Service, Department of Veteran Affairs, and Social Security Administration) will adjudicate the survivor benefits application and determine actual benefit amounts. The official entitlements may vary from the estimates provided in these OSBRs.

    I have read the above Advisory and understand that the OSBRs are estimates of my benefits.

    Should you need assistance in understanding the Online Survivor Benefits Report, you can contact the OSBR Family Assistance Support Team (FAST) at (877) 827-2471 or email the FAST at: MFOSBR@MagellanFederal.com.

    Initial OSBRs

    CAO or CAR/RSO/SOS/FSO should contact the Family Assistance Support Team (FAST) to link your government email address to OSBR(s) that you manage.

    Surviving Spouses or child(ren) (or child’s guardian) should coordinate with your CAO to ensure they have an accurate email address on file for you to assist with obtaining access to your initial OSBR(s), which contain your personalized survivor benefits calculations.
