Comptroller Services Portal 

Finance is expanding service while adding transparency to the status of your question! Customer service inquiries for Military, Civilian, and Travel Pay can use the Air Force Comptroller Services Portal (CSP). CSP is not just a ticket or queuing system. Upload documents, check status via your computer, receive email alerts when transactions process, provide requested clarification or additional documents, and more. 

-          https://csp.cce.af.mil/

The site is secure and fully protects Personally Identifiable Information (PII). CSP does not require VPN access but does require a CAC reader when using a personal computer. Members will be prompted to create a user profile and make any necessary updates (2-3 minute process) before submitting their initial request. Customers can then submit, review, and track their requests anytime, anywhere.

Org boxes are ONLY intended for GSUs and members without us.af.mil emails. Our primary means of electronic communication is through the Comptroller Services Portal (CSP), located at https://csp.cce.af.mil/. The CSP allows transfer of PII, so a CAC login is required.  If you have not used the CSP before, you will need to create a profile, and instructions are available on the home page under Quick Links.
