However, I am an E-3. My unit does not have 4187s for my promotion but they are creating them to send to me. After receiving these and showing them to finance I’d imagine my base pay will be that of an E-3. However would I get backpay for the amount of time that I am being paid as an E-1 or how does that work?

So you would be back pay&#39;ed to the date of the promotion.

That should also provide back pay depending on the date. Also you&#39;ll need a copy for your records. 2LT Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 27 May 2020 15:10:22 -0400 2020-05-27T15:10:22-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/what-is-the-process-for-receiving-backpay-for-my-time-in-ait-when-i-was-an-e-3-but-was-being-paid-as-an-e-1?n=5941343&urlhash=5941343 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Go to finance with your LES, and have them uodate it.
