I bother my RNCO about it just about every single week. still nothing. ive called DFAS, they said they see that i am to get a bonus but it has not been processed yet. Referred back to RNCO, still nothing. looking for help/guidance/advice.<br /><br />** UPDATE, I have just checked my LES and its gonna hit my account next week.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>did DFAS give you any info on why it has not been processed yet? Not a 42A but I don&#39;t think processing NG enlistment bonuses is a unit function. If it&#39;s in your contract then DFAS should have processed it.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I would recommend getting in touch with your state&#39;s Incentives Manager. I&#39;m not sure if the National Guard has gotten back on track with bonuses, there were huge issues last year with the Guard Incentives Management System (GIMS).

I get a bonus, split in half, payable in the 3rd &amp; 5th year of my contract.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Did DFAS say who is supposed to start inputs necessary to process your bonus?

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Sheesh that’s a long time to wait. I got a $15k bonus and rode S1s as- to make sure it was sent up. Got my bonus two months later.
