It'll be a great day when it actually comes through.
New rumor my son read, heard or was told this week was CULP pay may be coming December 1st.
Several of the cadets on my sons CULP trip were posting they got paid and like already mentioned, appeared to have been overpaid. They had a 31 day mission would should be "about" $1100 and a couple received over $2000. I have already warned my son to put anything over $1000 into a saving account just in case the Army comes asking for it.
CULP Summer 2014 participants,
This message was posted on the Cadet Command Information Management System this morning by the USACC Headquarters G-8. If you have questions, have your ROTC Human Resource Administrator contact the Brigade Cadet Pay technician assigned to your unit.

Due to an error at DFAS-Indianapolis Cadets who participated in 2014-CULP Summer deployments are being paid as active duty E-5 ($72.70 per day) instead of at the ROTC Cadet rate ($33.90 per day) plus other entitlements.
This is causing gross overpayments. Cadets in this group should be prepared for collection actions for any amounts that are overpayments. More information will follow as we learn what corrective action will be taken and how that action will effect Cadets.

Regretfully, this is all we know at this time.
Respectfully,
I meant to post this the other day, but forgot. I did get paid for CULP on the 1st at midnight, but all of 4 hours later they took all of it back. I was actually underpaid, but at this point I really don't care. I'd just like that $3000 back.
This is the email the head of CULP at Knox sent out about the issue:
hopefully no cadets are bouncing checks because they thought they had enough money in their account to cover holiday spending...
So here is a kick in the shorts... DS CULP pay was taken back like everybody elses BUT the deposit and take back included a portion of his regular monthly stipend. What a cluster!
