Thank y’all. I have been handed off to a new recruiter (previous one PCS’d), and the new recruiter has explained the process in more detail. There is a special pays agreement contract that outlines the details of the bonus.
I’m waiting on my final commissioning paperwork, so I’ll update with another comment when that time comes; that way if anyone has the same question I had, they can find this information.

Hey all, this seems like a simple question, but I couldn’t find it asked anywhere here before:
In order to receive the Accession Bonus for Nurse Practitioners in the Reserve Component of the Navy Nurse Corps, does the bonus need to be identified in the commissioning paperwork/contract; or, is it automatic?
My recruiter has seemed to shoot fairly straight with me during this process and says it is automatic, but I’m just having a hard time wrapping my brain around the government tossing out large sums of cash automatically without some sort of hoops or red tape to jump through.
Thanks for your help!
