I don't have the answer to your question - but the best place to get paycharts etc is on military.com. hope that helps.

Do you know rules for when they are in A-school, married, but not requesting to live ashore? Not only was the chart I found confusing, but it was hidden under an advertisement.

At some bases, for single E-4 and below, they must live in the barracks unless it is full. Then, beginning with the more senior E-4s, they can request to live off base. Even if they choose to share an apartment with a friend, they don't receive BAH and must maintain an inspection ready barracks room.

Married is different, although I think if they're below a certain rank, the must request to live ashore. School commands are always stricter.

Okay thank you! My boyfriend just graduated from bootcamp as an E3 and he won't be stationed for 2 years and I still have 3 years of school left so we won't be living together anytime soon, unfortunately, but I was curious for when it does finally get close to that time

Brittany- if he isn't married then he will not receive single BAH until I believe he is an E5. If he is not receiving BAH he probably will not be able to afford to live off base.If he is in A or C school and not married he cannot live off base

Brittney- I think that only falls under if they are single. But I think it is a E3 or E4I have not heard of that rule applying if they are married. My husband was living out in town as an E4.

Hey Ladies, I've been hearing that the guys can't live off base until they are a certain rank. Is this true and if so what rank do they need to be?

Yeah, that site's just being nasty to me. Certain areas seem to be working if I'm persistent enough.

Off the main Cinchouse site click on Military living at the top. it will give you a drop down box and give you the Newbie site to click on. Also another good site to keep in your back pocket is NMFA- National Military Family Association. www.nmfa.org - lots of great up to date benefits information.

Smoke
Just go to www.cinchouse.com - I gave you the link page that I thought would be easier for you to get to the information. I had no problems getting on last night but could be a server issue today. Sorry it did not work... but the main link works. K
