The families AFBN was created to serve

Military finances are different. Behind more than 100,000 families are people at every stage of military and Federal service.

  • A young service member arriving at a first duty station.
  • A military family preparing for deployment.
  • A Staff Sergeant trying to understand whether they're saving enough for retirement.
  • A family evaluating how much protection they need if something happens to a spouse.
  • A career service member approaching the 20-year retirement decision.
  • A Veteran transitioning from military service into civilian employment.
  • A Federal employee trying to understand an increasingly complex benefits package.
  • Retirees trying to make the benefits accumulated over an entire career last throughout retirement.

What families say

In their words, as left on afbn.us.

  • My previous years taxes were not filed by the deadline but AFBN went above and beyond to ensure we received our refund.

    J. Byrd, Tacoma, WA
  • This is the first time in 5 years that our return has not been rejected for mistakes. And, thank ALL of you for your extreme patience with our toddlers.

    Nathan & April, Colorado
  • Great to work with! They always make sure we understand everything and are working towards being financially set after the military life.
