Ok, so here's a question, if you are at about 13 1/2 years E6 just reenlisted indef and your RCP takes you to 22 years, are you still eligible for the CSB at 14 1/2?

He has to be in a tax free zone when he requests it right? Not when he gets paid?
Another question, if he has to be in a tax free zone when he requests it, can he do it prior to 14 1/2? Oh and sorry, how long is the option available? Obviouslyno later than your 20th year of service, but if you/ can you do it at say 16 years and just get it prorated, or how does that work?
Sorry, it's midnight here and I tend to think of the most questions late at night...

My 15-year BASD anniversary is early next April, which means, if I'm reading this thread correctly, that early next month I should be able to apply for the CSB. There seem to be two answers on when I would actually receive the bonus--either within 30 days of turning in the paperwork (say early November), or when I hit 15 years (early April). I'm downrange, and I may be leaving in April, so I want to be proactive on this so I can get the money tax-free. I went down to my finance office here, and a SPC there told me that I wasn't even allowed to fill out the paperwork until I had hit the 15-year mark. So what's the real deal?
