ADDITIONAL BENEFITS FOR PRIOR SERVICE
MORE THAN JUST AN EXTRA PAYCHECK
Similar to when you were on Active Duty, the Army Reserve makes sure you and your family are taken care of. As a Soldier in the Army Reserve, you'll earn money for education, cash bonuses, discounted health care and more.
BONUSES: EARNING EXTRA MONEY
There are many opportunities to earn extra money in the Army Reserve. These one-time bonuses reward Army Reserve Soldiers who possess certain civilian skills and education or complete special Army Reserve training. Talk to a recruiter to find out which bonuses you qualify for.
PRIOR SERVICE ENLISTMENT BONUS
These financial incentives are available to you just for reenlisting with the Army Reserve.
If you have prior military service you could qualify for a 6-year enlistment bonus. This bonus is only available with enlistment into the Army Reserve with designated bonus-eligible MOSs.
- Up to $10,000 with a 6-year enlistment
NOTE: Bonus amounts, eligibility criteria and qualifying Military Occupational Specialties change frequently. Contact your local recruiter to find out what the current bonuses are and which you may qualify for.
