Just re-enlisted on 7 October. Re-enlisted and received a Selective Reenlistment Bonus. When will it come through?

Just re-enlisted a few weeks ago. I was told it’ll take 30 days or less to receive. However I saw on my end of month LES it did not appear. Do bonuses not appear on the LES? Just wanted to make sure it was coming as the remarks on my LES said “Congratulations on your reenlistment”.
Thank you!

It might not show up on this one because it's already the 25. My guess is you'll see it on the 15th of next month.

My bonus payments have always been on a separate LES. Double check your LES list and make sure it's not the next previous one

I would be concerned if I were you. SRB gets approved before reenlistment and is paid by ETF. I can't imagine how it could take a few weeks to get paid since DFAS does the payment.

For active duty Army they usually appear in your account around the 30 day mark. They aren't paid with your normal pay and you won't see it on your LES until the end of month LES after you receive your bonus. If you call DFAS they won't have any record of your bonus until after you have been paid.
