S1NET Message Summary - 3/10/2024

1. “ALL AC LEADERS, READ TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR NEW SOLDIERS”  TAG SENDS MESSAGE: MONTGOMERY GI BILL-ACTIVE DUTY (MGIB-AD) SELECTION. S1s/G1s, all newly recruited Regular Army (RA) Soldiers must make an IRREVOCABLE “opt-out” selection from the 38 USC, Chapter 30 Montgomery GI Bill-Active Duty (MGIB-AD) via DD Form 2366 180 days after entering the Army (Basic Active Service Date or BASD) or be automatically enrolled into the education incentive, which will initiate pay deduction. At 180 days, IPPS-A will notify these Soldiers that they have 90 days to make an IRREVOCABLE “Accept” or “Opt Out Of” election via a DD Form 2366 and uploading it to IPPS-A to complete the selection. If no selection within 90 days, the Soldier will be AUTOMATICALLY enrolled into the MGIB-AD. It is critical that the RA Soldier make an informed decision because there are two types of GI Bill education programs – MGIB-AD and the Post 9/11 GI Bill (PGIB). Both are VA managed education programs. However, in more than 95% of cases, the PGIB is a vastly better education program that has no participation cost; therefore, it is very important the RA Soldier makes the right selection. RA Soldiers can visit their installation's Education Center to educate themselves on each program's nuances or compare them by navigating to the VA website. Visit the following link for Opt In/Out procedures. https://www.milsuite.mil/book/docs/DOC-1311232
