Life Membership Payout Recoupment

Per Resolution No. 1 adopted at the August 2025 VFW Auxiliary National Convention, Auxiliaries and Departments are required to review their membership rosters at least annually and ensure that all deceased members are entered as deceased in MALTA or by other official means.

Should the National Organization identify a deceased life member who has been deceased over three (3) years, the VFW Auxiliary National Headquarters may recoup any life payouts received for that member in excess of those three (3) years. Recoupment may occur by deduction from a later "life payout" or other payment to that Auxiliary or Department. The VFW Auxiliary National Headquarters will notify the affected Auxiliary or Department no less than thirty (30) days prior to that recoupment and allow the Auxiliary or Department opportunity to prove that the member is either not deceased or provide justification as to why recoupment should not occur.

A tool to assist an officer in researching their older life members to ensure they are indeed still living is in the "Duties” tab in MALTA, in the "Manage Members Section” is the link "View Members.” In this area on the right-hand side in the "Search for a list of Members” area, a search may be conducted for Life Members. The results that are rendered may be sorted by any of the columns by clicking on the column header such as "Birthdate.” This will provide a listing of life members by their date of birth. This will assist in reviewing the membership roster.

Thank you,

VFW Auxiliary National Headquarters
