Expect the first pay on May 15th. My hubby went to BCT on Feb 20 and got his first pay on March 15.

Thanks that gives me a good idea of what to expect. Did your husband receive BHA on the first paycheck?

Normally payday is the 1st and 15th, but in bootcamp, they are still processing paperwork so you generally won't see ANY paycheck until he hits about week 6 of training (sometimes faster sometimes slower), but it will have ALL his pay to catch him up on it. It will also have the first portion of initial issue taken out of it though (total that's around $700) so it might not be so fantastic. He'll get it eventually, the first ones just a little slow.

Just for information...even your BAH will be divided in half, so 1/2 on the 1st and the next on the 15th.

Does anyone even if everyone gets E-1 pay in boot camp or would I get E-3 pay if I am an E-3?

I went in as an E3 and got paid as an E3, but everyone is referred to at the E1 title- "recruit."
