UGH... Here we go again.
We had drill Oct 17-18 and no one has been paid.

The excuse for this month is the Marine Corps pay system was "refreshed" last week and we should receive our pay between 10/30 and 11/4
At this rate We will have our Marine Corps Ball (Nov 14) before we get our Oct Drill pay.

Last month the reason given was Admin wouldn't accept the muster sheets because of coffee stains on the sheets.
August, my admin contact stated the I&I staff didn't turn in the paperwork for a week after drill.
July I had my 2 weeks AT so I didn't have drill
June, I&I blamed the delay on the new PFC in S-1
It all sounds like BS to me.

How quickly after a drill does the pay hit your accounts?

Thanks

Took my unit 8 months to pay me after my first drill weekend.

I usually get paid the following 15th. My NOSC is pretty good about pay, the longest I've waited for pay was 3 weeks.

Normally you run the reservists drills and certify the diary prior to them going home on the end of drill weekend.

It only take about 2 weeks for my unit to pay me.

It's like clockwork in my Guard unit.  I am almost always paid on the Wednesday 10 days after drill.

Depends on how dicked up your admin section is.  Ours usually took two weeks.

So far I've been paid sometime the following week after drill. Things have worked out really well so far.

supposedly da army rc pay system takes imputs 8 times a month and then pays out in 1-2 cycles
my pay is ususally 4-19 days till payday
depends
my unit also does lots of split training so pay is going in all the time through out the month

Still no pay for October Drill…
We keep getting told different dates for when it will arrive and different reasons why it is late.

I/I staff is getting pissed about getting phone calls from everyone in the unit asking about the pay situation.
SODD
At least they got paid in October, they can afford the cheese and crackers to go with their whine.

ETA..Recieved the pay for October 17-18 drill on November 06
