Lieutenants get: $69,018; $72,358; $75,698; $79,038; $82,378; $85,718; $89,058; $92,398; $95,738. Captains get: $79,594; $83,268; $86,942; $90,616; $94,290; $97,964; $101,638; $105,312.

The Deputy Chief and Assistant Chief pay rates are each set at 95 percent of the pay rate for level V of the Executive Schedule. The Chief’s pay is the same as the rate for level V of the Executive Schedule. When General Schedule pay rates change, these Secret Service rates change too. The change happens at the start of the first pay period that begins on or after the first day of the month when the General Schedule change takes effect under section 5303 (or other authority). The Secretary may use a method that makes each step within a rank increase by a fixed dollar amount and that keeps the same percentage gaps between ranks at the same step. After any adjustment, pay for Lieutenants, Captains, and Inspectors cannot go above 95 percent of level V of the Executive Schedule. Locality pay under section 5304 applies to these base rates, but the added locality pay cannot make the total pay go above the basic pay rate for level IV of the Executive Schedule.
