Do I need to pay back my Tier 7 bonus once I sign my phase two contract for Green to Gold active duty option? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/do-i-need-to-pay-back-my-tier-7-bonus-once-i-sign-my-phase-two-contract-for-green-to-gold-active-duty-option <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I’ve recently re-enlisted for 6 years and got a Tier 7 bonus. Also, I made the list for green to gold active duty option and currently in phase two of the process. Question is, Do I need to pay back my bonus once I sign my phase two contract? My AEA code on ERB was “I” but it changed to “L” once I re-enlisted. Should I be worried?

I did not have to pay back any of my contractual bonus. I’m sure in states that in some regulation. Remember, should you fail to commission you will be returned to Active Duty to serve out your contract.

You get to keep your reenlistment bonus when you commission. You&#39;ll only pay it back if you get kicked out, or if you were somehow paid the bonus after being selected for G2G. Your retirement had nothing to do with your AEA Code change SFC Private RallyPoint Member Wed, 27 Jan 2021 09:18:46 -0500 2021-01-27T09:18:46-05:00 Response by SSG Private RallyPoint Member made Jan 28 at 2021 2:13 AM https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/do-i-need-to-pay-back-my-tier-7-bonus-once-i-sign-my-phase-two-contract-for-green-to-gold-active-duty-option?n=6698985&urlhash=6698985 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If you look in the 601-280, you&#39;ll see that a transition to warrent or officer, you are still fulfilling your military contract, so you do not have to pay back your bonus. Things change if you change from active to reserve or vise versa. SSG Private RallyPoint Member Thu, 28 Jan 2021 02:13:31 -0500 2021-01-28T02:13:31-05:00 2021-01-26T22:42:53-05:00
