how long does it take for an army bonus to get to your account?

Answer 1

Depends on when and where it was done, if it is a sign on bonus you will get it after you report to your duty station. If it is a reenlistment bonus it takes 2-4 weeks, it will show up in there one morning when you are thinking you can not wait any longer. And it does not have to be on the 1st or the 15th, I asked this same question a few months ago.. It took my husbands 2 weeks and a few days.. His also hit our account on a Saturday which I felt was kinda weird. But he told me that if it was not there in 4 weeks that he would have to talk to his NCO's so there must be some kind of time frame.. We also had to call our bank and let them know we would be getting a large amount of money, so they would not hold it.. It worked out ok for us.. Good luck

Answer 2

You'll see about half of it upon successful completion of your AIT. The balance will be spread out over the remaining years of your enlistment, and you'll get a payment once a year on the anniversary of your AIT completion.

Good Luck in your Army career! God Bless you, and thank you for your service.
