Bank deposit
 

This month I had 7 hours I could deposit to the bank, I did. I ended up picking up a green slip and would like to deposit more, but it does not say there is more eligible for deposit. Is it a once per month only kind of thing?

GS, like vacation hours, are not bankable. Beyond these, you can only bank hours above the reserve guarantee for that month.

You can only deposit credit over 80 hours. GS is pay no credit so therefore doesn’t produce anything bankable.

Just so I’m clear......

I had 87 and went to 80 after I deposited 7. I then flew a GS for 11:30 credit plus the GS pay. Shouldn’t I be able to deposit the 11:30 of credit (not the GS pay).

No. You can't bank any GS pay. I have vacation this month and I flew a 3 day GS. Have 113 hours and can't bank a single hour to go towards my 70 hour September.

No such thing as "GS for credit plus the GS pay."

GS by definition are double pay/NO credit. You aren't grasping this fundamental concept. Check your time card to verify.

Got it now. I don’t fully understand why there is a distinction between pay and credit, but that is neither here nor there. I’m sure there’s a very good reason why I can’t put hours I earned into the bank though. Thanks for the explanation.

Only hard time above reserve guarantee can be banked. Green slip, training, or vacation that puts you above reserve guarantee are not bankable.

It’s actually over 80 hours not over reserve guarantee. Section 12.N of the PWA is the reference.
Edit: there’s also a limit of 20 hours per bid period and 60 total in your bank.

It all boils down to the fact that you bank credit, not pay. Per 23.Q, green slips for line holders are double pay, no credit above the ALV/GS trigger and single pay, no credit above reserve guarantee for reserve holders.

Vacation and training give you "fake credit" so you can hit the GS trigger but that "fake credit" disappears for bank purposes.

Pulling from Bank, when it pays out
 

Hello all, I take a big pay cut when I go out on MIL leave. I have read you can draw from the bank (negative) to help for lower credit months (like being out on military). I did so for the first time the end of July. Icrew seems to reflect this, but I don't think I've seen this on my paystub yet, and I assume enough time has passed. Any advice or gotchas doing this? I haven't had to inquire about any pay issues yet since starting here.

I would have guessed it would be on the mid August check. Now I’m going to have to look back and do math for earlier this year when I pulled some from the bank.

Should have been paid Aug 15th. Look for it at:
Icrew>Pay/Hours(top tool bar)>Pay Statement>Sel Bid Period. Should be a line below your paid trips that says Fill Curr Month.

Thank you for your replies. I think I let my wife convince me something was amiss. We figured it out. Thanks again.
