Moving to Pensacola, FL...BAH questions...help!
Ok, so my fiance graduated boot camp on 5/6/11 and he is now in P-cola for AIRR. He said they are on hold for classes so he's expected to be there probably until the end of the year at least. What I need to know mainly is about BAH. He is going through the beginning paperwork (CHIT?) for us to get married as soon as possible. Since we are not yet married, and he can't live off base during Aschool, I am just moving down there at our own expense. My main question is....once we are officially married, will he be given BAH for an apartment that we are getting off base. I really don't understand everything fully. I have read several different things...one telling me one thing and then another, but he says as soon as we are married we will get the BAH to compensate for the apartment we are getting. I really just need some info ladies! & if you have any suggestions or ways to correctly go about this...please feel free to help!
Also, if anyone is looking to move to Pensacola, FL or is already there looking for roommates...I am interested!!
Thanks!
