I know that they take BAH directly out of your paycheck, but that still sounds a little on the low end. When we got married, my husband turned in paperwork to add me as a dependent, so he should have started getting dependents pay but he didn't. All he had to do was take his LES to the admin on his ship and not only did they correct it, but they gave us back pay for the months that were incorrect. Have your husband take his LES to admin and they should be able to see where the problem is and help him correct it.

The housing takes the whole amount for the first month rent out of one paycheck.

 

As was said he needs to check his LES to see what  is going on.

 

There is no BAS with dependents...that money is for the SAILOR to eat only.  If the Sailor is stationed on a ship or in school...he doesn't get the BAS (expect like $10, doesn't matter if they eat on the ship or not.)

I'm confused because it says that he gets it on his paycheck so does it not count????

Oh, he's getting BAS, there's simply no such thing as BAS for dependents.

How much does it say the BAS is?  Also is it in the deductions part also?  The USN gives them the BAS than takes it out..that is why is is in both boxes.  If he is stationed on a ship, and getting BAS he needs to go to Admin ASAP to get it fixed...otherwise the USN WILL take it away all at once...which means he could go months with out a paycheck depending how much he was overpaid.

ok...no one gets that much BAS...it is $300 for enlisted people.

 

He isn't stationed on a ship or in school...he is on shore duty so yes he would get the BAS. 

 

It isn't they don't help them out...it is there are certain rules for getting or not getting BAS and to switch to the other one isn't normally allowed.
