What does a bonus LES look like? My paperwork was submitted 4 weeks ago, I was told 30 days but no one seems to know what's going on with the status. On mypay I have one LES that's blank, just has my information and a pay date for August 15th. Then I have another one that has my regular drill pay on & a pay date for August 16th. I've listed a screenshot of both LES's. Is there anyone who can help?

Sorry the screenshots are blurry for some reason but you can still see one is blank & the other isn't.

Ok first of all the bonus will always come into your acct seperate from your reg pay. Make sure to get on my pay and look at the options it may have a different or an old account listed for those kinds of entitlements. Next you get 2 LES statements per month a end of month summary and a mid month that only shows what you received for mid month pay (most Soldiers get paid twice a month on active duty) i understand that you are reserve status. Either way the bonus could come tomorrow on the 11th lets say....you would receive the money direct deposit with taxes removed, and then on 30 Aug or a few days before the end of month LES will come out and you will see it the entitlements box the bonus listed as something different than normal. Also in the remarks on the bottom it will state Congratulations on your reenlistment! Reenlistment bonus paid amount date and other info....
