I’m studying for the asvab atm, got any tips

I received a $15,000 bonus for the air force reserves 🙌🏽
Which job?

How and what job I’m signed up for Air Force reserve also
@@TomKriebMy recruiter got me a $15,000 bonus for the airforce reserve which came with starting basic training at E-3, Cyber Defense Operations was the job for me.
@@warnercollins3581thats great im thinking about joining and are you becoming an E4 after bmt or tech school or do you have to wait?
I am so happy I delayed my enlistment, I would've missed on this bonus, God works in misterious ways.
The Air Force and ANG must be really lacking on recruitment to give out these sort of bonuses.
Thank you Jody, because of this video I made a decision of joining and finally sworn in 2 days ago with a 50k bonus! Waiting for my ship date now and thrilled for the upcoming chapter! 🎉
Hello, did you sign up for active duty?
Please continue to make more ANG content!!!!
I definitely will. 🤙🏽
@@Jodywithawhy Do you suspect that the Air National Guard will begin to grant age waivers over the next few years? If I could receive one, I would join without any hesitation or indecision.
Hey,Jody ,this is my first time watching a current video since I subscribed to you last week. I just want to thank God for your life and yes every single video of yours is valuable 👏👏👏
AIM HIGH✊✊✈✈🛩🛩
Thank you so much and I appreciate you supporting. 🙌🏽🙌🏽
Wow really gave me insight, will be looking into schools soon
I joined the ANG because I wanted to pick my career, I didn't want the Air Force to pick it for me. I got $5,000 for my first career field, nothing for my second and $15,000 for my third.
This video could change the path of some peoples' lives for the better. Much better.❤
I appreciate bro! Thank you!
wish i would've been told more knowledge by recruiters as a senior but now I'm 22 and going active !
Jody! I recently went to MEPS, I was medically qualified, signed my contract & entered in the DEP for the Air Force! Thanks for all your help w/ your vids🙌🏽 However, I was a heavy smoke but I was stopped 45 days/drunk water every day prior to taking my drug test at MEPS. Do you think I'll pass? It's been 2 days & I haven't heard anything yet
Big congrats to making it through. 45 days should be enough for you. These tests usually take anywhere from 5-7 days before you get results. Just be patient and good luck. 🙌🏽
@@Jodywithawhy thanks King!
@@RoiMilord
Did you pass?
What people aren’t letting prior service members know is you don’t qualify unless you wait 1 years for the bonuses if you already ETS. Per Air Force verbiage.
I signed up AIR FORCE active duty while In DEP I received a Job offer paying 135k a year. I have a dilemma. Active Duty are The ANG. This sounds like a great opportunity based on my current circumstances.
Go get that job bro😂
Hey Jody, I have a medical question about enlisting into the AF. I was wondering if it's possible at all to enlist with a sickle cell trait? I have a genetic sickle cell trait, and I'm not sure if it stops me from being able to enlist.
It could definitely be a disqualifying factor. You’d have to gather all of your records and meet with a recruiter to see if you able to obtain a medical waiver.
this is great info thanks for sharing
Is it possible to transition from ANG to active duty?
I’m graduating with a BS - Communications in May, but I’m planning on getting into law school afterwards. I’m also interested in serving while studying, but only if I can get commissioned as an officer from the start. Any recommendations? Thanks.
Nice! So you could do this after enlisted and take in an extra 50,000 over the term ontop of all the money you save up in the military bc you have very few bills
Hey Jody, thanks as always for the info. Where can we find critical need infor for Air Force Active duty? My recruiter is checking over my medical, im about to join.
I wish you could be my recruiter! I wanted to pursue active duty until I came across reserves and how it was part time. I was interested because I am in school and wish to finish but still want to be apart of the Air Force. However, my mind contemplates and I have been having a hard time making a decision. Am I able to email you perhaps and get insight on what I should do? If I’m going to get advice , I would like to hear from you. I’d greatly appreciate it!
Air national guard? Wow never heard of it until now, I was stuck between national guard and the air force and have a full time job but need more opportunities and benefits. Sounds perfect but I heard they never pay out the full amount they “promise”
Are any of the sign on bonuses applicable to someone who would be coming in as an officer? Thanks for the good content!
These are enlisted bonuses. I don’t believe there are any officer bonuses available.
Hey Jody!! Love the videos man. I have a question. I want to go back to school and get my masters, does the 1606 help cover tuition or is this primarily for bachelor degrees? Thanks
You can use the 1606 for Masters programs as well. Will your state give education benefits for your masters, is the bigger question because those programs can get pretty expensive.
how do these enlistment benefits combine with state career specific benefits
Question after graduating what happens if your family doesn’t come to tap you out
Someone who you went through basic with will tap you out.
i wanted to join the air force so bad that i studied so hard for the asvab (got a 68) but, the recruiters never text back or are consistent. so i just settled for the army :(
Same thing I’m going through but they reached back out today so hopefully it goes well
Hey Jody, who offers bigger signing bonus is it AirForce Reserve or Air National Guard part time?
What are your thoughts on joining then attempting to roll in school or is that something you would have to be enrolled in already. I have my associates, am 33 and a career working for an airline company. Considering joining to switch it up and still be able to accrue seniority while I’m in.
Very nice video,
My question is: If you join in the Air Force reserves or Air National Guard, will the GI Bill help pay for flight school ?
Thank you
Here you go. This might help. www.va.gov/education/about-gi-bill-benefits/how-to-use-benefits/flight-training/
Hello,
Great video!
If I received both the GI bill chapter and the kicker, can I still use the GI Bill later on that pay tuition and a monthly housing allowance of around $2k?
So yes and no. It depends on how much you use of the chapter 1606. You have a total of 48 months of benefits if you use the 1606 and the post 9/11.
However, if you use 36 months of the 1606, you will only have 12 months of the post 9/11. So if you plan on using the post 9/11, you don’t want to use too much of your 1606. I hope that makes sense.
It does. Thank you! This is separate from the $4500 annual tuition assistantship, right?
Random question: How does the ROM identify and verify what airmen completed tech school and Basic Training ?
Does the amount change if school is online or does it have to be hybrid ?
I believe the full payment is for both online and traditional school. You may have to ask a local recruiter, but I’m pretty sure it’s either or.
Does the Air Force Reserve also give the education benefits like the Guard?
Hello I have a question, and wanted to see what you think; Do you need a college degree to move up the ranks in the military on the enlisted side? Will not having a college degree jeopardize you moving up the ranks as an enlisted airman! It would be something awesome if you made a video about this subject. Thank you for all your helpful content! ✌🏽
It will become very critical when trying to make E-7 and up. But any rank before that is obtainable with or without education.
When did these new bonuses go into effect? I enlisted into the California Air NG for 1n4x2 this past Wednesday and only got a $15k bonus. Any way that can be bumped to the $50k?
It just went into effect last week. You may have to talk with your recruiter and see.
I want to be a fire fighter on the civilian side but aslo want to do para rescue in the Air Force national guard but I’m worried I won’t get deployed a lot which I want to, so do you know how often u think I may get deployed
Do you need to be enrolled full time in school before joining the air National guard for these benefits? I was planning to start up college again once I’m fully out of tech school and I’m working the 1 weekend a month schedule and everything gets settled
No. As soon as you enroll in school, that’s when you can start collecting your education benefits.
This sounds perfect for someone like me who is going to community college. Just one question. Let’s say I graduate from Community college or a university while in the air national guard and I no longer want to do the air national guard, but, I want to enlist into the Airforce for active duty; Is that possible or would I have to complete all 6 years? Thank you for your time!
It’s possible but it’s really hard to transition from guard to active duty. It’s a lot easier to transition from active to guard, but if you’re joining solely to finish your degree with assistance, the guard may be more beneficial.
Are you a recruiter? I'm wanting to go over everything I'm on the fence with going active duty I'm 38 so I'm older so idk what's best as far as active duty or reserve or air national guard
It really depends on your situation. Active duty is for those who need a full pay, want to get away from their current situation and start new. Guard and Reserve are for people who are already situated and have a good thing going, just need some extra assistance and benefits to make a little easier, or just want to serve but can’t do it full time. So it’s always case by case.
@Jodywithawhy honestly only thing keeping me wondering is will I be able to truly get my degree active duty.. I'm suppose to start up school again this coming month but I'm really debating on just going for active duty cuz I've been struggling with life right now with literally nothing going my way so wanted to improve my life
@jodywithawhy Do you know how soon they know the new bonuses after the new fiscal year? I'm assuming it changes for FY25, and I don't see any amounts on the website anymore. I want to ask my recruiter, but I don't want her to lose interest in me because she thinks I **only** want the bonus.
It would be awesome if I could get a Fl air national guard to reach out back to me. I done called every recruiter on their website and no call backs
I’m thinking about doing the Air National Guard but I want to go to a private institution out-of-state? Though I don’t get 100% tuition assistance, do you still think it’s a good idea to continue to move forward in my process with this program ?
You ever heard of the Yellow Ribbon Program. It’s designed to help pay for members to go to private colleges. Here’s a link explaining it. www.military.com/education/gi-bill/the-yellow-ribbon-program-explained.html?amp
This is specific, but do you have a video in regards to joining air guard (part time) and going in as an officer what that process looks like and opportunities with that? I’m out of Austin, Texas.
I only videos where I interviewed a guard recruiter, and they detailed the process. But it was more geared towards enlisted members. ruclips.net/video/Z05Om-jmySM/видео.htmlsi=k7mI0i6GcZw_RsoY
@@Jodywithawhy also, you’re out of San Antonio, I’m out of Austin. Are you the recruiter I speak with?
I actually only teach new recruiters how to do their job. I’m no longer recruiting anymore. I can help you find a recruiter though if you shoot me your zip code.
@@Jodywithawhy 92211... Thanks for the offer because I could use a lot of help getting in from someone who's willing to go the distance to get me in 😅.
So it is better to join the reserves.
I'm in DEP active Airforce. I'm seriously thinking of switching to the guard. I don't want to let down my recruiter tho, he's put in the work for over a year to get me into the Airforce. I feel like it would be very dick move.
I’m think about switching from Guard to Active, I feel like I’ll get complacent & lazy.
@@V7imnida Wanna switch lol?
I’m getting chapter out it’s not a dishonorable discharge and I wanna join the army national guard will I have to go to basic again
Hey If i have a metal rod in my leg would I have to get it out before going in and is it possible to make extra money with a business while in the airforce
I’m wanting to be a pilot in the guard. Apparently it’s easier to get a slot.
This is not exactly true because you have to be an officer and most guard units require a bachelor, high GPA(preferably STEM), private pilot license and flying hours and good recommendations on your package.
@@coolkidgamer9278would the GI bill help to pay for flight lessons if you were to join Air Force reserves or Air National Guard ?
Hey Jody, I am currently Active Duty in the Air Force and want to transition to the Air National Guard but in the full time component (AGR). Could you speak about that topic?
Please reachout to your local in-service recruiter.
You'll have to see the state job postings or you can apply to the Air National Guard bureau itself (Andrews AFB, MD) . It will not be an easy ride since ANG prefers to select their members prior to other components.
I am currently a air force reservist and the air force just took my career field away should I try to cross train into another reserve career field or should I join the air national guard?
I heard the bonus is taxed very heavily. Can you please touch on that? Is the scholarship for education taxed?
You can expect about 25% of your bonus to be taxed.
Taxes come out and it’s paid in installments? That’s kinda baloney.
Are the Air Force Reserves giving out a 50k enlistment bonus too? Ive already talked with a reserve recruiter before seeing this and have MEPS on the 12th of August. Im s little nervous to bring this up to the reserve recruiter and is this something he could help me get. Thanks so much in advance for any answers anyones willing to give. 😊
I don’t think they do. I would just recommend you ask and see what opportunities they have.
@@Jodywithawhy Thank you for quick response, I will definitely do so!
Jody, if I have my EMT license in California would I be able to get a fire job here as a ANG? Or if I was to move to Las Vegas Nevada, would I be able to get a job as a fire fighter there?
Good thing about guard is that you are able to pick your job unlike active duty. Call your local wings and figure out if they have the job you want and how to get booked for it.
Will they pay for my masters degree if I’ve already finished school?
By chance can you get all of these benefits for being a full time masters student and joining the NG as an officer?
These education benefits pay up to a masters degree. Beyond that, you’d have to pay out of pocket.
How much would you make during BTM joining as a e3 and you're married? Thankkss
So If I am a prior enlisted who switches from active to guard, would I still be able to keep my GI bill benefits and use the one provided by the national guard to go to school?
You would be unless you’ve already used some of your GI bill.
They have the enlistment bonus for special missions aviator only for national guard are reserve but not active duty I’m sad 😂
Would this path help if you’re trying to become an officer? And wanna get your 4 years done in college while still getting the benefits?
Definitely. It’s basically a full ride scholarship to obtain a degree. You also get the military experience to help with your officer package once you complete your degree.
Does your schooling under ch. 1606 have to be in alignment with that specialized career field in order to qualify for the kicker?! 🤑
Nope. You can choose your degree path.
Do you need to be an American Citizen?
Can you join active duty airforce as a 17 year old? And if so how do they deal with the year of school ahead for active duty.
You can. You’d need parental consent, and you’ll finish your last year of school while reporting to student flight once a month if you’re guard, or the delayed entry program once a month if you’re active duty. I hope this helps.
Are the school benefits the same for commission officers ?
Most states only pay up to a bachelors degree, you’d have to do some research to see what your state allows. But the Montgomery GI bill 1606 will still be available for all members.
Can you join without ever going into the Air Force prior or have to serve active for awhile before this ?
Definitely. You can join directly as a civilian.
Go hard go Guard
I just took my ASVAB and I scored a 62 and I’m really happy with my my score but a job I want that’s on Air Force website is Cyber Defense Operations but my recruiter says that eventho it’s on the website it’s not a Job, Why does the the Air Force have this job listed if it’s not possible to actually obtain??
I think you recruiters lying to you I was asking mine about jobs in Cyber and she said I qualified for Cyber Defense Operations. I hear that sometimes recruiters try to push into the jobs that most people don’t and then they try to entice you with the bonuses.
How can we contact you with questions?
i was at meps for the air force a few days ago i gotta get a wavier for my asthma but they let me swear in, what do u think?
This is a normal thing now. I would recommend just bringing patient and let it work itself out. If you haven’t watched this video, this will show you how to increase your chances of having a medical waiver approved. ruclips.net/video/ynKjsxegEPE/видео.htmlsi=4x7_dg5G1ByWW2uw
You’ll get it. I got the same problem, but got the waiver
Do you have a video for ages 30+ looking to join the Air Force?
I have one. Hopefully it helps. ruclips.net/video/HA0qeZrPHbM/видео.htmlsi=1MqZX4NT8tfNcvGM
Can you join as an officer?
Enlisted doesn’t get shit
national gaurd kind of sounds the same as the airforce reserve what is really the difference ?
State benefits and free license plate
State TA
Is the Air National Guard the same as the Air Force Reserve when it comes to being at the same base?
Yes. You’ll stay at the base you initially swore into, until you decide to move. If you ever decide to move.
@@JodywithawhyThank you for the reply! Do you know where I can get started in the recruitment process?
You would just visit this website, input your info and a recruiter will reach out. www.airforce.com/how-to-join/join-the-air-national-guard
Thank you! I Can’t wait to join!
Damn my recruiter hasn’t reached out me ,and I have called for 5 time in the past month . Smh
Same here, did he finally respond?
Crying in security forces cuz I already know they ain’t giving me 90k to reenlist 😂😂
1D7 aint on the list 😞
Not undermanned. 1B4 is.
@@damerabbit As far as I know, 1B4 is currently not available at the unit I'd be at for ANG. Maybe that has changed, I'll ask if my waiver(just submitted today) gets approved.
Are you prior or new to the service?
New to service.
Hey Jody i’ve been on and off for the past 2 years on if i should join or not. and i was just wondering if there was some way i could contact you and see your thoughts? like through instagram or email or something
