    Sign-on Bonus Confusion
    I ask this questions since I've seen similar questions in this forum.

    My wife received a sign-on bonus directly out of college, but left the job within 6 months (due to an inhospitable work environment.) She has several thousand left to repay as she was required to stay at the job for three years.

    The post in these forums that caught my eye was the posting about the necessity of repayment whereby the employer should be repaying the relocation costs. In other words, she left the job, was not paid for relocation, and now is required to pay this amount.

    Is the no relocation = no repayment statement true?
