English DIGEST: Employee requests refund of $346.50 in union dues which were erroneously deducted from his pay, instead of pay of employee with similar name, between 1969 and 1977. Employee may be reimbursed for those deductions the refund of which is not barred by Statute of Limitations. Repayment by union may be waivered in whole or part under 5 U.S.C. § 5584, if after reviewing the record the Department of the Air Force determines that waiver is appropriate. Lieutenant Colonel C.G. Neiman, Chief, Accounting and Finance Branch, Comptroller, Headquarters Warner Robins Air Logistics Center (AFLC), Robins Air Force Base, Georgia, requests an advance decision regarding the voucher of Roy W. English for refund of $346.50 in union dues which were withheld from his pay between August 31, 1969, and August 20, 1977, and paid to Local 987 of the American Federation of Government Employees. The facts are as follows. In 1969 Roy English of Fort Valley, Georgia, authorized a voluntary allotment to AFGE Local 987 for the purpose of paying union dues. From that time until his retirement in 1973 no deductions for union dues were made from his pay. Instead, from 1969 until 1977 union dues were collected from the pay of Roy W. English, another employee at Robins Air Force Base. Roy W. English states that he notified the payroll office in 1969 of the erroneous deduction but failed to submit a written request to discontinue the allotment as he was asked to do. No further action was taken by Roy W. English until September 1977 when he again contacted the payroll office. On April 11, 1978, the certifying officer submitted a request for a decision on the propriety of certifying a voucher to reimburse Roy W. English $346.50, the amount of union dues deducted from his salary between 1969 to 1977. In his letter, received in the General Accounting
