N130D Section Head Enlisted Bonus Programs

• Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB)
• SRB is used as an incentive to increase the number of reenlistments in ratings and Navy Classification (NEC) codes having insufficient retention. Award levels are reduced or eliminated as retention improves in ratings/NECs to make SRB funds available for other ratings/NECs.
• Please see the new SRB instruction signed 30 Jan 07, OPNAVINST 1160.8A
• SRB Early Reenlistment Eligibility FAQs (Jan 2009)

• Enlistment Bonus (EB)
• The Enlistment Bonus Program is designed to increase the number of enlistments into hard to fill ratings.  EB Program includes EB, EB for College Credits, EB for Special Operations (EBSO) and the Navy College Fund (NCF).

• Assignment Incentive Pay (AIP)
• AIP Program allows Sailors to set their price, through a "bid" system located in CMS/ID, for an assignment to certain hard to fill billets/locations. The qualified Sailor submitting the lowest bid will receive the assignment.  The Navy establishes a maximum payment for each location and pay grade to control the bid.

• SDIP-Curtailment (SDIP-C).  Aims at incentivizing Sailors to voluntarily curtail their shore duty assignments a minimum of six months prior to their original PRD, and return to sea duty assignments on a ship, submarine, or at an aviation squadron for a minimum of 12 months.  (12 months onboard satisfies SDIP-C requirements)

• Special Duty Assignment Pay (SDAP)
