I checked my bank account today and I noticed $1,475.59 was deposited into my checkings. I got out on July 19 2024 as an E3 so I’m confused on whether it’s an error or not. I got an email from DFAS which I put below. If anyone can give me some answers or advice on what to do I’d greatly appreciate it.

    “Dear Service member,

    Effective this month and ending in December 2024, if you are a Service member in pay grade E-1 through E-3 you will receive a temporary taxable, monthly bonus pay. This monthly bonus pay is being provided as a result of laws enacted by Congress in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024 with funds they appropriated earlier this year specifically for this purpose. The monthly bonus amounts are based on this limited level of funding Congress has made available.

    If eligible, your monthly bonus payment will be computed at 1 percent of the 2023 monthly basic pay rates for the eligible pay grades for members on active duty. The monthly bonus is in addition to any other pays, allowances, and/or bonuses you may already be receiving.

    You will see this temporary monthly bonus pay reflected as 'Saved Pay $XX.XX' under the 'Entitlement' section found on your Leave and Earnings Statement. Payments will occur once a month through December 2024 and will be included as part of your end-of-month pay that normally occurs on the first of the month.

    As stipulated by the law, this monthly bonus payment is temporary and is not expected to continue into 2025.
