How Does The Army Pay Your Bonus?
If your bonus is less than $20,000 you can generally expect to receive it in a lump sum, upon completion of the terms in your contract. This is generally after completion of your initial technical training.
Do you get your enlistment bonus right away?
You won't receive your Army enlistment bonus immediately. The Army needs to make sure you're committed to your role in serving the country and that you're not just in it for the money. Once you complete basic training and career-specific training, you'll receive your first payment of $10,000.
