I know there's uber amounts of BAH questions, but I searched and didn't really find anything...


DF is Army National Guard and is slated to deploy sometime in 2009-2010. While he is deployed he is considered on active status, correct? So does that mean he will recieve BAH? (We are probably going to be married before he deploys again). Also, he is suppose to be starting an AGR job for driving on base; does that mean he would be considered on an "active" status again, and eligble for BAH as well, or am I totally out of it?

Thanks in advance!

If he is actually activated then he would qualify for BAH with dependents ( if as you state you two are married) for deployment he is considered active. The other one :dunno it would depend if they would still keep him activated or not.

:agree he should be considered AD while deployed and will get BAH and if you are married and he is gone for more than 30 days, he would also be eligiable for separation allowance

Another question to make me look lame: separation allowance? What is that for?

when they are involuntarily separated from their dependents for 30 days or more. They get 250 a month till they get back. involuntary means deployment or TAD ( temporary assigned duty)

:yes it's just to try and compensate for not having your man there.

i get that know and my DH is just in basic..... ill tell you what though it doesnt really help.... ifd he evr gets deployed im putting that 250 a side to send him carepackages and what not

AGR is active guard which means he will considered active which means tricare, bah, etc.
