The match is not intended to collect debts or to determine eligibility for Federal benefits, but to identify Reserve personnel who hold critical Federal civil service positions so a mobilization of Reserve forces would leave as little impact as possible on the operation of the Government. As the match assists management in identifying such personnel, the cost/benefit analysis was waived.

Title 24 U.S.C. section 414(c) provides that the Armed Forces Retirement Home fees shall be fixed as a percentage of Federal payments made to the resident. Results of the match: Approximately 1465 "hits" were received which disclosed the amount of military retirement (after 1 March COLA), the current VA offset, and amounts being deducted for Spousal Support.
