Question

active duty.........what is your bring home pay???

i already saw the pay charts but i want to know your pay.....thanks

Answer 1

the pay was $78 per mo

Answer 2

What rank and are you married or not - it all makes a difference as does the state you are from - many states don't tax military earnings.  

Answer 3

i've been in 4 yrs coming this october. my take home pay is around $3,300 ... but that's including BAH and BAS. married with one dependent.

if you're living on base, you wouldn't be recieving BAH. i receive about $1,062 in BAH (stationed in FL), so minus that i would be bringing home about $2,300/mo.

my husband brings home around the same amount, give or take a few $100. although i'm just an E4/SPC ... i beat him in rank by a few months.

Answer 4

The pay charts are before taxes. How much tax is taken out depends on what you claim, and what your state takes out, if any. Also, your pay grade makes a difference. In three years time, you probably would be anywhere from an E-1 to E-4, but could get up to E-5 (I was in an accelerated advancement program in the Navy and made E-5 in 2 years. I had to sign a 24 month extension for it, though).
