Data Verification Record (DVR)
Definition
The Data Verification Record (DVR) is the document utilized for promotion consideration — and is the most important tool to review to ensure information on a promotion record is complete.
What All Eligible Airmen Must Do
Review their DVR in the Automated Records Management System / Personnel Records Display Application (ARMS/PRDA).
If Errors Found
Airmen must immediately contact their MPF for assistance.
The MPF will:
- Update the MilPDS with correct data
- Update the DVR on virtual MPF
Airmen should review the updated record to verify changes have been completed accurately.
