Some common discrepancies on the Form 14 that may delay your pay:
| Failing to submit a Form 14 |
Be sure to get the forms transmitted to state personnel by Tuesday of each week of emergency duty |
| Duplicate Form 14's |
Submit Form 14's only once and keep documentation of when it was sent (ex. FedEx tracking #, fax transmittal receipt) |

Keep a copy for your records and make sure the same day is not submitted for pay on multiple form 14's |

Do not submit Form 14's without a mission number. They cannot be processed for pay. |
| Fire missions that are missing fire codes (box 12) |
Fire missions have a fixed rate of pay for each day of duty and for each type of job performed. Without this code, the claim cannot be processed. |

Without the duty Month or Year, the Form 14 cannot be processed |
| No soldier signature (box 17) |
The soldier who is making a claim for pay must sign the form |

Every form must be certified by the appropriate authority of the duty that was performed |
