I have a soldier that just re-enlisted and within 2 weeks a new srb bonus came out. He did not qualify for a cash bonus when he re-enlisted but does now. I heard that there was a time frame that was allowed for cases like this bu I am unable to find it. Is there something that will help this soldier get some bonus?

No, unless your Soldier is within 2 years of his/her ETS (unless deployed) and meets the current qualifications for the bonus.

Sorry, there is no "grace period" for selective reenlistment bonuses.

I am a SFC with 12 years of service, my ETS date is 10 AUG 2009 and my MOS is 11B. Do I qualify for a bonus once I am in within 24 months 10 Aug? I am currently stationed at Ft Benning with no PCS orders at this time.

ArmyReenlistment will give you the correct information. I just wanted to see how close I got with the information you gave me. I'm not a retention NCO. I just did a little research. I'm sure I forgot to ask some important questions. AR will square you away hoo'ah.

If you re-up til 2015 you would get:
Zone A - $20,000
Zone B - $25,000
Zone C - $15,000

If you re-up til 2014 you would get:
Zone A - $17,000
Zone B - $21,000
Zone C - $12,500

If you re-up til 2013 you would get:
Zone A - $13,500
Zone B - $17,000
Zone C - $10,500

Because you are not deployed, assigned to a MiTT team or your ETS is not within FY07/FY08, you do not qualify for the Enhanced Bonus.

On the Inventory Bonus, SSG 11Bs between 10 and 14 years may qualify for a bonus multiplier of 2. The bonus cap is $25,000.

If you can provide me with the following information, I'll get a more accurate bonus calculation for you:

BASD
PEBD (if different from BASD)
ETS
and I think I have the rest of the information.

My BASD is 17 July 1995
ETS is 10 Aug 2009

I am a SFC, MOS is 11B, I hit 12 years on 17 July 2007. No orders for Mitt or deployment. I still qualify for Inventory Bonus?
Milper 07-141? Thanks.

Yes, you can reenlist on 11 August and receive up to $25,000.

Thank you

AR, (and friends )

I have shown my Retention NCO your SRB chart, and where it says I am eligible for a bonus. However, he tells me that, this chart, lol, does'nt apply to me.

What gives?

Here is my info:

Currently 68J, 6 years TIS ETS 13DEC2008
Reclassing to 68X once I recieve a class date.
The school requires 18 Months After completion, so I'm guessing I will be reenlisting for either 3, or 4 years.

Either way, why am I not eligible for a bonus?

Thanks in Advance.


Everybody needs help sometimes, ESPECIALLY me.

Remember... FY 2008 ends in SEP. Your DEC 2008 ETS is actually in FY 2009. Sorry bro.

I was hoping that, THAT, was not why I could'nt get paid. lol

Thanks though.

I'm cook looking to re-class into the bear program is it possible. I'm told we are a critically short MOS. It my first re enlistment my ETS is AUG2008, my DEROS is SEP2008,

Can't do the BEAR, but you get Option 3, Army Training Option.

Get with a Career Counselor for a list of what the Army is offering you.

Yeah, sorry,. Medical_SGT, once again, Smittaayy is 100% right on his information.

I am a SPC with 6 yrs in deployoed to Iraq. I'm trying to reenlist to 96B (BEAR program) which has a bonus. I heard that I can reenlist to 96B get the bonus and get the SRB bonus. Is this true.
