Instructions for submitting the SECNAV Form 5512/1 via DoD SAFE

Everyone has access to upload the form and the application is available for use by anyone.

1. The DoD SAFE application can be accessed via https://safe.apps.mil/

2. If you do not have a CAC, you will be asked to enter a drop off code/link to submit the form. Email mandersen@nps.edu  to request this code/link. Make sure to specify that you are trying to submit the SECNAV Form 5512/1 when requesting this code/link.

3. After selecting one of the options above, the page will be redirected to the package upload form. Fill in all of the required fields:

  • From: Your Name, your email address
  • To: mandersen@nps.edu;
  • Short Note to Recipients - Enter a description for the package;
  • File(s) - Click the "Browse" button to select your file(s). Upload your completed SECNAV Form 5512/1; 

4. Clicking the "Drop-off Files" button will upload the files and submit the package.

5. After the package has been uploaded and verified, each recipient will receive a link to the package download page as well as a password. These passwords are unique for each recipient (not the package), and will be disabled once SAFE detects that the user successfully downloaded each file within the package. Forwarding recipient and sender notification emails to anyone except the DoD SAFE Team is strictly forbidden.

 

NON CAC/MILITARY ID HOLDERS: Once you arrive at NPS, you still need to retrieve a pass at the visitor center. Please make note of the instructions below.

  • At NPS, please enter via Sloat Main Gate, where you will be directed to the visitor center for a pass.
  • Visitors will need to provide identification and be checked in the system to be given a pass. There is only one person vetted at a time.
  • This process can be very slow if there are many people trying to access NPS all at once, and it is likely that there will be a long wait at the visitor center on Tuesday and Wednesday morning of the symposium.
  • It is recommended that you retrieve your pass from the visitor center on the day before your first day of event attendance (Monday if you are attending Tuesday’s tutorial session, or Tuesday if you are not attending the tutorial but the symposium only on Wednesday and Thursday).
  • The visitor center is open Monday through Friday, 7:00 – 11:30 am and 12:00 – 3:00pm.
