SDP (Savings Deposit Program)

Yes. Look at the example on page 51-8. https://comptroller.d...7a_51.pdf#page7

The 10th is the cutoff for that month's credit.

So, with the removal of most countries from the IDP list, how has the SDP been affected, if at all?

From what I have heard, if you were ever involved in this program and the country you were in was removed from the list, they are going to go after you for taxes a penalties.

WTF are you talking about? The SDP made you a few hundred bucks. Who the fuck cares?

I'm betting he's talking about future uses i.e. do the new IDP rules make SDP mostly a thing of the past that's restricted to a very few locations?

Their page hasn't been updated since 2011, so probably just call and ask about specific locations.

Depending on how they define "SDP eligible locations," which has always included some sort of "in a combat zone receiving HFP or IDP," the SDP may not still be available in places like Al Udeid.

I am curious, now that Al Udeid no longer has IDP but is in the CZTE area, if I can still participate in the SDP after deploying there.

I figure someone here must have recently passed their 30 day requirement to participate and would like to benefit from their first-hand experience and knowledge.

When we were at the Died earlier this year (Jan/Feb) they were still doing the SDP there. Not sure if they were supposed to be doing it, after reading this thread, but I will be pretty pissed if the government comes after me for the measly $300 I made from it.

At the Deid right now and talked to finance last week, and they are still doing the SDP.

Headed to the Deid for 365. Is the SDP still an option?

You probably know already as it's been 2 months since your post, but yep, just made a deposit yesterday.
