Based on the options below, can you identify the correct answer?
A. The traveler’s credit score check results in a 670 credit score.
B. The traveler refuses to authorize a credit score check and does not submit a DD 2883.
C. The traveler refuses to authorize a credit score check but completes a DD 2883.
D. The traveler discloses a bankruptcy on the DD 2883.
✅ Correct Answer: B. The traveler refuses to authorize a credit score check and does not submit a DD 2883.
Why is B Correct?
If a traveler does not authorize a credit score check and fails to submit DD 2883 (Statement of Understanding for Government Travel Charge Card Program), they are automatically issued a restricted travel card. This is because their financial responsibility cannot be verified.
Why Are the Other Options Incorrect?
❌ A. The traveler’s credit score check results in a 670 credit score.
A credit score of 670 is generally considered good and does not require a restricted travel card. Instead, the traveler would receive a standard card.
❌ C. The traveler refuses to authorize a credit score check but completes a DD 2883.
If a traveler completes DD 2883, they may still qualify for a standard travel card despite refusing the credit check, as the form provides an alternative means of assessing financial responsibility.
❌ D. The traveler discloses a bankruptcy on the DD 2883.
Disclosing bankruptcy does not automatically result in a restricted card. The issuing authority reviews the traveler’s overall financial situation before making a decision.
