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.

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.

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.

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.
