This will ensure that you are credited with the proper BAH. These may seem annoying, but they are for the SM&#39;s protection.

Use your chain of command. It varies depending on your exact situation.

( ie. marriage certificate or birth certificates) They will do a 5960 to update your BAH status. Normally you will get BAH based on the location of where you are stationed but if you are a geo bachelor due to being on an unaccompanied tour then you can receive BAH based on the location of your spouse. 1SG Private RallyPoint Member Mon, 14 Nov 2016 10:12:13 -0500 2016-11-14T10:12:13-05:00 2016-11-13T22:31:26-05:00
