Army Enlistment Bonus Charts

By Rod Powers, About.com

There are two types of enlistment bonuses currently offered by the Active Duty Army: Enlistment bonuses for non-prior service recruits, and enlistment bonuses for prior service recruits who have been separated from the military for 91 or more days (those separated from the military for 90 days or less would use the regular re-enlistment bonus charts).

Non-Prior Service enlistment bonus amounts are based on the MOS (job) and the number of years one is enlisting for.

Prior Service enlistment bonus amounts are based on the MOS (job), how long one was in the military, re-enlistment zone "multiplier," the individual's rank, and how many years the individual is re-enlisting for.
