DoD MISCELLANEOUS PAYMENTS
OVERVIEW
Purpose. The purpose of this guide is to assist Department of Defense (DoD) officials
in identifying mandatory requirements prescribed for DoD miscellaneous payments. This guide
prescribes policy for certain miscellaneous payments for Federal and Non-Federal entities. It
provides a high-level overview of policies and processes, with a goal of consolidating and
streamlining miscellaneous payment procedures across the Components. Use of the
"Abbreviation" miscellaneous payment codes (pages 6–10 of this guidebook) is mandatory for
any miscellaneous payment request within the DoD. If the entitlement system is unable to
capture or process the "Abbreviation" miscellaneous payments codes, the entitlement system
personnel must reach an agreement with the DFAS Tax Office regarding how payments will be
processed in order to ensure that proper tax withholding and/or reporting occurs. The policy
and procedures identified in this guide are derived from the Federal Acquisition Regulation
(FAR), the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement (DFARS), the DoD Financial
Management Regulation (FMR), and other statutory and regulatory resources referenced
throughout. An authorized miscellaneous payment is defined as a payment that is not initiated
by a contract or task order, and is generally a one-time occurrence for which the government
receives benefit. Miscellaneous payments will be paid if the underlying expense was authorized
and if the claim is legally payable. See DoD FMR Volume 10, Chapter 12 for additional policy
concerning miscellaneous payments.
Policy.
A. A miscellaneous payment is defined as a valid obligation of the government having one
or more of the following attributes:
1. Payment under special authoritative arrangements other than a
formal contracting arrangement. These may include specific payment authorities pursuant to
legislation or Executive Orders. Example: Child care services and youth programs services for
dependents; financial assistance for providers.
2. Payments authorized under formal contracting arrangements that
may necessitate other payment methods. Examples: Payments for morale, welfare, and
recreation functions when use of the Government Purchase Card (GPC) is not feasible.
3. Payments for non-recurring, non-contractual purchases.
Examples: Payments for Attorney fees and other expenses awarded by a court, arbitrator, or
administrative board to the party prevailing in a civil action against DoD, when use of the GPC
is not feasible.
B. Submission and processing of miscellaneous claims for payment must be accomplished
electronically (DFARS Subpart 232.70), with limited exceptions as prescribed by DFARS
232.7002(a). Electronic submissions of miscellaneous payments may be submitted via the
4
Invoicing Receipt, Acceptance, and Property Transfer (iRAPT) part of the eBusiness Suite,
Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, or other approved electronic methods. Supporting
documentation, to include receipts, tickets, invoices, or other specific forms identified by each
template in this guide, must accompany each payment request. The electronically transmitted
payment request is treated the same as a paper request and must contain the required data
elements of a proper invoice (see FAR 32.905(b), “Content of Invoices”, and Title 5, Code
of Federal Regulations (CFR) § 1315).
C. Miscellaneous payments are subject to the obligation standards prescribed by the DoD
FMR Volume 3, Chapter 8.
D. The approved payment request must contain a valid line of accounting obligated as
specified in the DoD FMR Volume 3, Chapter 8. Due to the nature of miscellaneous payments,
and the absence of a contract number, processing of the payments through a DoD payment
system may require the configuration of unique standard document numbers.
E. All payment requests must have a valid line of accounting and a Tax Identification
Number (TIN) registered with the DoD in accordance with Title 31, United States Code
(U.S.C.), section 3325(d). In accordance with FAR 4.11, contractors and vendors doing
business with the Federal Government must register in the System for Award Management
(SAM), except as noted in FAR 4.1102. The exceptions include instances involving classified
contracts, purchases using the Government-wide commercial purchase card, and purchases
under emergency or contingency operations. Contractors and vendors are responsible for
keeping all SAM information current. In accordance with DoD Directive 5400.11,
Components must safeguard the privacy of all individuals and the confidentiality of all
personally identifiable information (PII), and take action to ensure that any PII contained in a
system of records used to conduct official business will be protected so that the security and
confidentiality of the information is preserved.
F. Certifying officers will ensure the accuracy of a voucher and supporting documents;
ensure transactions are legal, proper and correct; and ensure the obligation of funds are sufficient
for payment. Submitting activities must provide a copy of a Defense Department (DD) Form
577 (Appointment/Termination Record) for certifying officers, to the DFAS Indianapolis
Disbursing Operations (secure email: [email protected]).
Certifying officers are appointed only after completion of required training and can be held
pecuniarily liable for erroneous payments resulting from the performance of their duties (31
U.S.C. 3528). See DoD FMR Volume 5, Chapter 5 for additional policy concerning DD Form
577’s and certification of vouchers.
G. Reimbursement to entities or individuals can only occur if the underlying expense was
properly authorized and the claim is legally payable.
H. Title 31 CFR, Part 208 requires that Federal payments be made electronically, except as
prescribed by 31 CFR Part 208.4.
I. The GPC may be used for payment of certain miscellaneous payments for transactions
5
valued at or below the micro-purchase threshold (DFARS Part 213.270). If a non-Federal
entity does not accept the GPC, payment by convenience check may be another option. See
DoD FMR Volume 10, Chapter 23 for policy concerning the GPC and convenience checks.
J. The Intra-Governmental Payment and Collection (IPAC) system shall be used to
properly transfer funds to pay for goods and services exchanged between Federal agencies
(Treasury Financial Manual, Volume 1, Part 2, Chapter 4700, Appendix 10, Section 9.4.3).

ALPHABETICAL LISTING OF MISCELLANEOUS
PAYMENT CATEGORIES
Existing Abbreviations. Use of the "Abbreviation" miscellaneous payment codes
(pages 6-10 of this guidebook) is mandatory for miscellaneous payments made by the DoD.
If the entitlement system is unable to capture or process the "Abbreviation" miscellaneous
payment codes, the entitlement system must reach an agreement with the DFAS Tax Office
regarding how payments will be processed.
Abbreviations. This guidebook does not encompass all miscellaneous payments
and primarily those with a less significant volume of requests may require special
handling. If a particular miscellaneous payment has not yet been assigned a code or
template and begins to recur in a volume that processing without the use of a specific
miscellaneous payment code becomes burdensome, then the organization being impacted
should contact DFAS (dfas.indianapolis-in.zpr.mbx.accountingpolicy[email protected])
with a recommendation to add a new code in this Guidebook.
Tax Withholding. The use of uniform miscellaneous payment codes is important to
determine the tax reporting and withholding applicable to payments and to determine the
applicability of Prompt Payment Act (PPA) or other required interest. These codes must be
captured in such a way that they can be used systemically to determine whether payments will
be cash- managed, whether PPA interest is due for late payments, and whether IRS Form 1099
reporting is required.

GENERAL NOTES ON THE TEMPLATES
1.
Any reference to a Standard Form or DoD Form includes the electronic equivalent

2.
Miscellaneous payments may have tax consequences as follows:
Certain payments may be required to be reported to the
Internal Revenue Service (IRS) using either IRS Form
1099 or W2.
Tax reporting is not required for employee-reimbursement-type
payments (e.g., clothing allowances, fire/police protection
equipment, training, household good damages, and personal
property loss).
W2s and withholding are required for employee payments of wages
and employment compensation such as back pay related to
settlements and judgments.
3.
Payments to foreign governments require special handling and are not covered in
this document. (See local operating procedures.)
4.
"Pay as Soon as Possible" means to make payment to the vendor at the earliest
time possible once all required documentation, as required by 5 CFR 1315.9,
including EFT information, is received by the payment office.
5.
A miscellaneous payment code and template for Maintenance Services is not
included because these services are always purchased under contract.
6.

UTIV Utility Payments Interest Bearing
Reimbursement Type
Non-Federal entity payment
Short Description: Utility payments that are interest bearing and tariffs and late fees do not apply.
Description: Payment of cable, gas, water, sewage, and electric billing statements.
P
ublic Utility A business that furnishes an everyday necessity to the public at large. Public utilities pro-
v
ide water, electricity, natural gas, telephone service, and other essentials. Utilities may be publicly or pri

v
ately owned, but most are operated as private businesses. Typically a public utility has a Monopoly
on
the service it provides. It is more economically efficient to have only one business provide the service be-
cause the infrastructure required to produce and deliver a product such as electricity or water is very ex-
pensive to build and maintain. A consequence of this monopoly is that federal, state, and local
governments regulate public utilities to ensure that they provide a reasonable level of service at a fair
price.
Municipal Utility - A publicly owned corporation, or a political subdivision, that provides the public with a
service or services, such as water, electricity, gas, transportation, or telecommunications.

Prompt Pay Interest?
Yes - Prompt Payment Act - In the absence of state, local or foreign
authorities that impose generally-applicable late payment rates for utility
payments, all utility payments, including payments for telephone service,
are subject to the Prompt Payment Act. The Submitting Activity should
review the contract/agreement, if available, to determine applicable
Prompt Payment Interest or Late Fee penalties. This procedure may
assist when determining which penalty applies. Most utilities will place a
“late fee amount" on the utility billings as a normal business practice for
all customers (residential, business, and government entities). (Title 48
CFR 52.232-25 - the additional penalty does not apply to payments
regulated by other Government regulations (e.g., payments under utility
