How do I re-enlist for an incentive?

· Contact your Brigade Strength Manager, Battalion Career Counselor, Unit Readiness NCO, or Unit Retention NCO. They will validate your eligibility and prepare the required documents for your review and signature.
 

When will I receive my bonus payment?

· Incentive payment schedules are outlined in your contract. You should first read and understand your contract. If your payment is past due, contact your Readiness NCO through your chain of command. They have access to the system in which these are processed and can provide a status to you. Most Soldiers receive payment within 30-45 days of Date of Entitlement.
