https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/should-my-pay-be-based-on-my-dor-or-the-processing-date-according-to-s-1 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Was promoted to SGT on 1 March 2021 per my ERB and the promotion list. According to my LES I received backpay from 8 March 2021 onward and received the difference in my EOM LES. When I submitted an inquiry I was told by Finance that 8 March is the day they processed my promotion so therefore I got paid from 8 March instead of 1 March as a SGT. <br /><br />Question is, wouldn’t my pay be based on DOR and not the processing date according to s1?

It should have a date of rank and effective date. If the effective date is 8Mar21 then finance is correct. CSM Danny S.
