roto 6 Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 Nice, thanks for that. Looks like the reserves gets the short end of the stick again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JustHangingOut 69 Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Can anyone provide clarification on whether the newest changes (additional AFSC that were added to the eligibility list) to this bonus apply for the whole FY19 or if eligibility for those newest additions are only eligible 01Jan19 and end at the end of the FY19?

Gazmo 230 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 My retention office is saying 92T is not included in the bonus? Anyone have any clarification? It seems some others are getting it.If 92T's are included in this, NGB needs a serious lobotomy. Who in their right mind rushes for a pilot slot for the money?! Why would you target this demographic with a bonus?! Money was so far in the back of my mind when I was trying to get pilot slot. They need to target the 15-20 year group and with a hell of a lot more than $20k for a 4 year commitment. Give me $80k for a 4 year commitment and I'd possibly consider it. The 12-20 year people are the ones leaving. These are the AD separations and Palace Chasers. These are the ones looking at Cat E jobs. At IRR. At IMA jobs.... they don't get it.

MountainHerc 16 Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 If you look at the list of “Musts” that’s on the doc that JustHanginOut posted, it seems pretty clear 92T’s can’t be eligible. -Must have less than 15 years -Must have more than 4 years total military service -Not be fulfilling a service obligation other than 1) initial (ROTC, Academy, OTS) 2)Promotion 3)PME 4)Transfer of GI bill Put me in check if that seems off.

jpt921 0 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Does anyone know if 11S would fall under the AFCS. Seems strange its the only pilot AFCS omitted... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FUSEPLUG 392 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 My unit has been lining guys up on a downrange trip first, then they go down and sign the paperwork. It sounds like that was worked out well so far. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BLT135 5 Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I was told I needed to wait until I had completed the pipeline (while others at Altus were getting it), and now that I'm done they are saying NGB has halted the bonus. Does anyone have any info on why or for how long? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have not heard them halting the bonus. i hope this is not true as i've been have trying to get my records all corrected (After NGB messed them up...go figure) to submit my packet. My recruiter that is managing this did tell me i can apply during training. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
torqued 670 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Multiple people have received phone calls saying the bonus was on hold because they were reviewing the eligibility requirements. They were told they may or may not receive it. Reminds me of the money on a string prank. Great job, NGB. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SocialD 1,035 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 NGB: Good news guys, we're giving out a part-timer bonus! Pawns: YAY!!!! NGB: Ya, it's going to be totally awesome and will help retain our peeps...here you go. Pawns: (reviews eligibility requirement)....dude, like 3 people in our squadron are eligible, and they're not leaving anyway. NGB: .... NGB: Oh and btw, we need to review some things... Pawns: Opens up retirement donut of misery chart. NGB: So here are our new requirements... Pawns: (reviews new requirements)...dude, now only 1 person is eligible. Flips table! We seriously only had 2 guys eligible in a squadron of ~40 pilots and neither of them have heard anything either way. I really hope this is bad gouge, but no skin off my back, I was prior-E and not eligible anyway. Well it's a gorgeous day here in Barcelona, time to meet the crew for beach/wine/tapas. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gazmo 230 Posted August 3, 2019 Share Posted August 3, 2019 Ironically I just found out I am eligible for the $20k AFRC bonus (6 yr sign on) for being hired into an IMA position. Can't get the ANG bonus at 17 yrs of service, but can get the AFRC bonus by crossing over and going to 23. What is wrong with NGB? Are they that blind? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

af15eflyguy 0 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 First post after probably a decade of not logging in... Apparently I'm the 1 pilot in my squadron who's eligible. I'm planning to stay ANG anyway, but my question is about signing it downrange. If I sign the bonus in a CZTE area, do I get the $$ tax free, or do I have to be paid the $$ while downrange for it to be tax free? I have the question in with finance, who's looking in to it, but I'm sure that means the answer is the standard Auto-No. If anyone has any experience with this or knows how to find the legit answer, I'd appreciate the help. a not so F15E fly guy anymore Quote Link to post Share on other sites
herkbum 250 Posted August 8, 2019 Share Posted August 8, 2019 I asked this question of JFHQ a few months ago. Their belief was it would be tax-free. We did not have anyone press-to-test yet. Sent from my iPhone using Baseops Network mobile app 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
