In addition, emergency financial assistance can be provided through AFAS to meet unexpected events and needs such as funeral expenses, emergency travel (not funded by Command), basic living expenses, vehicle repairs, and other expenses on a case by case review. AFAS emergency assistance usually combines an assessment of the emergency situation and an evaluation of the personal budget of the member seeking assistance. The majority of AFAS emergency assistance will be provided in the form of a non-interest loan and the member will be responsible for paying the loan back to AFAS over the course of 6-12 month (varies based on each case).
