Step 1 - Verify Your Personal Information

The following instructions, including screenshots, are available for download.

1. If you have a DoD ID card or a CAC but no access to a CAC reader, select the Email Registration option and click Continue. You must have a unique email address on file in DEERS to use this option. A unique email address is one that is not used by anyone else, including family members. 
2. On the Personal Information screen, enter your personal data that matches your DEERS record:
   • First Name
   • Last Name
   • Date of Birth
   • Person Identifier: Select a person ID type from the drop-down list (such as DoD ID Number or SSN) and enter the associated ID Number.
   • This info should match what is in DEERS for the system to verify you.
3. Click Submit. Continue to Step 2 - Confirm Your Email.
