- Here are some things I think you should know about BAH. It can kind of a confusing thing sometimes when we first get married. However, it is super easy to understand, but don't get carried away with it! BAH doesn't change if you have more than 1 dependant. It will stay the same. So manage it right, budget, and you will be good to go!

Living off-base is great! You get your chose of where you want to live. And privacy away from the military. We save $250 each month just from our BAH! It's very helpful for my husband & I living together.
Just Wright what rank is your husband? Does he like the Air Force?
Thank God I wanna do that, like for my husband to have a little scape from the military. Thank you i love your comment
Aside from my rant, I love watching your videos! You give some pretty great advice and inspire me to help other spouses, particularly younger ones. I am learning from experience how hard it can be to be a spouse (and how wonderful!), and I wouldn't have learned half of what I know now if it wasn't for all the people in my life guiding me and giving me advice!
This is helpful information. Most my husband has enlisted recently & I'm trying to get as much information as possible. Thank you!
This is literally the best information I got today! My husband is at AIT we have no idea where hes gunna get stationed and my biggest fear was weather or not we should live on base. That and we have a huge lab that needs a backyard and I know that there is a waitlist for the housing in base. So thank you!❤
Love this video, you explained it a lot better than anyone else and you showed examples which helped a lot.
i love your outfit and makeup in this video 😍 so fall!! 🍂🍁🌻
Miranda Heleski Thank you😊 I love fall colors!
I love your videos! Im always learning something new even though I am not married or anything haha..keep it up ❤❤
Could you make a video on how to save money in the "military"? Like with flights, living together and saving money, saving money for when you're able to live together in the future, hotels, etc.
It would be so helpful!
Anna Laird I would also like to see a video on this! 😊 Just getting married it would be nice to have advice like this 💕
Me too!
Thank you, That was helpful.
Awesome video!
OMG just started watching your videos, I love your channel! can't believe you guys live in Washington!!!! I do too! 🤗🤗
So cool(: Thanks for watching😃
Brit+Con my boyfriend is stationed at fort Lewis! No problem (:
Hey I like ur videos..
How do you buy a house with the new bah ? Is it even possible or u just have to rent ?
Will you get BAH if you bought a home to pay (or help pay) mortgage? Thanks?
Does BAH will cover any amount of rent on post? Or do i have to pay the difference?
So dependent is for some who got married? and single still can get with-out dependency right?
Besides all the good advice and info... you’re *sooooo* pretty.
Thank you 😊
@@MidnightXAlchemy nice
Love this video! Where do you work full time at?! Was it difficult to find a job once you moved? That's my concern. Once we PCS, I am worried about being able to find a decent full time or part time job.
My name is Megan Boisvert-- my husband and I share a TH-cam account haha
ohok haha I will definitely be doing a video on this!
What if my little brother is my dependent and he lives in a house while I’m active duty do I still get BAH
oh gosh right that is like us. we have 3 kids and it is not much
I live in Seattle!☺️✌🏼
please tell me where you got your sweater! i love it and you look so cute!
Thank you, 💕 I actually got it at Goodwill! haha During our valentines day vlog we went and I found it 😊
So I just graduated college and want to have a full time job even when my boyfriend, whose in the military, and I get married. Since I’m technically not a dependent since I’d have a full time job, would we still get BAH? I know you said that the dependent thing is different than taxes..
If you get married, even if you have a full-time job, you become dependent so he will get BAH!
Hey do you get food allowance or bas I think it's called
Hey thanks.
Oh hey, I’m moving to Everett in a few weeks!
Im sorry
Great video! What camera do you use?
A Samsung NX mini!
Can I my lil brother live with me if I get housing?
What if I enlisted I am married but only my wifes name is on the lease agreement can I still get BAH?
I’m in the military. And my wife just passed away. Am I still going to get BAH?
Very clear wow
How fast does BAH come?
Awww I love your intro. And I love that song 💖💖💖 (sorry im posting from my husbands account lol
I could just rant forever about marrying for the benefits! I married my husband super young, but I was 100% able to support myself before we married and I am still 100% able to support myself almost a year after. In my opinion, I just feel like WHAT BENEFITS?! Yeah, you get extra money for housing and health insurance is somewhat cheaper... but most of us military spouses spend so much time alone while our spouses are risking their life! Don't get me wrong I got so much done while my husband has been away! (Lost thirty pounds, finished extra classes, saved money)But to me that just really isn't worth it compared to the fact that he is in South Korea, and anything happen... Just overall, marrying for the benefits is stupid, because honestly if you really love that person there is no benefit compared to them being gone ALL the time or just the constant feeling knowing that anything can happen to them. If you love them and want it to work then wait until you are ready.
Brittney Webb what bout a scenario where both partners weren’t getting married for love just for the BAH temporarily?
South Korea is a paradise trump won’t let Kim do anything I promise
If all of BAH goes to rent, as a homemaker how will I feed my daughter?
I would love for you to make a video on this:
How do you find a job? I'll be graduating in December with a teaching degree and will get married in May. After May who knows where I'll be with my airman. But i know finding a job will be hard.
There are a lot of really great resources for finding jobs! When you get to your base, definitely go talk to the Airman and Family Readiness Center, they are so helpful when it comes to career resources!
I have a question. Okay so my soon to be husband declared his his mom as a dependent (she can’t work). Will this mess me up and our BAH? Thanks
She won’t be living with us
No , bah will stay the same
You can get bah even if you're single by your own ,if your leasing an apartment
He’s listed our daughter as a dependent. I’m not married to him but we have a waiver for him to get BAH. How much of an allowance will he give me? Is he required to help house me? Or only if he wants to?
BAH only goes to him. He has to choose to help you. They will only take all of BAH if he lives in military housing, not regular apartments. They also get food allowances. Not all military personnel but some.
My husband is joing the army and will be going to basic training. Will he start getting BAH during training?
My fiance and i will be married before he enters bootcamp and from what ive been told/read, we will get bah during training
Hi, I don't know if you'll see this or be able to respond but I thought I'd give it a shot - my boyfriend is also in the Navy and we're now going to be moving in together. He got based up in Washington state. We're trying to find apartments near the base and the ones we found seem nice but the reviews are awful. Do you have any recommendations for apartment complexes, good areas, areas to stay away from, anything of that sort?
What city will he be in? Also check out Trulia and Areavibes! Trulia gives you a breakdown of crime near whatever home/apartment you are looking at and Areavibes gives letter grades to different sections of the city based on finances, schools, jobs, crime, etc.
@@BritCon2 Thank you so much for taking the time to respond!
I’m in Seattle and my husband is about to enlist. 👌🏽thanks for the information
Did your husband enlist?
Hey Brit, so what if you are going to have a baby? Should you still go with off military housing or on military housing?
I would look at how close base housing is (or if it’s on base) and how much it costs vs an apartment. Sometimes base housing is far and also apartments are cheaper. So you could save money for your baby. Just make a pros/cons list if you can!
Brit+Con thank you Brit, I really appreciate your response
When you look into on or off post. Have you considered that bah covers water, maintenance, partial electric and partial gas on top of just rent?( on post - Atleast at a lot of bases/ posts I’ve seen/ lived at)
I usually see that people only assume the bah goes to just rent.
In our area while the rent avg is $850 for an apartment. The utilities and extra fees usually end up going over bah or right under bah. But then the difference in gas to go home to a farther area makes you spend more.
Is that something y’all take into consideration when planning to live on or off post? How do y’all go about that choice ?
Yes! We take all of it into consideration. Usually, apartments cover that also. The first apartment we lived in here covered everything except for the internet. Here also, where we are stationed, military housing is about 15 minutes from base. So we would have to use gas for both of our jobs. So it is important to take it all into consideration because every base is different!
Brit+Con but I stayed in military housing. I felt safer living on base. I use to visit my friends who lived off base and they had to worry about a lot things that happened or could happen off base. I never had that issue on base. So that’s the reason I chose to live on base.
I can still work if I get married to my fiancé he is the navy
Okay I have a question do you get bah after discharge??? Like you do just your first enlistment and get out!!
No you don't. Once you are out you are out.
That’s why so many homeless veterans!!!
I just moved commands and live in the barracks. My upcoming check has BAH in it for the first time. Why am i getting it?
Do you have a dependent child or wife in another place?
So I’m going to be in the Air National Guard and be an E-3 with no dependents and the recruiter said I can’t live on base. Do I get type 2 BAH to pay for an apartment?
No lol
My ANG recruiter says there’s no BAH in basic ., you get it in tech school …….
What military branch is he in.
Do i still get bah if I live on base and my wife lives back home?
She isn't moving lol got 2 dependents also
That’s what I want to know
I want to know the exact same thing
@@ostine82 you won't get bah anymore they stopped that. You just lose.
@@adamduke6836 damn I decided to join at the worst time ever
Actually good time. No one up in your face. Everyone is freaked out. It's chill. I went option 40 ranger. It'll work out bro.
BAH: Basic Allowance for Housing
what about having a child?
I’m an army wife and my husband is in AIT right now. I’m supposed to be looking for a house off base within 4 weeks. How do I find a good home if I’ve never been to that area?
Look on the areas Facebook pages, and post recommendations on areas within the city/town
Kara Cooper thank you so much!
when does the wife start receiving bah?
Only the service member receives BAH. Usually within a month.
If you are married but your wife is in Africa but you are in the states,do u still get BAH??
Wanna know the same
I have a question but cant find an answer anywhere. Not even in the instruction Opnavist 7220.
Question: I got married June 22, 2019
Honorably discharged October 04, 2019.
I moved in my apt. August 22, 2019.
I got out and never received my BAH.
I filled out the paper work and everything. They said I would get bsck pay but never did. What should I do?
The Commentator did u ever got your BAH and back payment
You are gorgeous
I know this may be personal so you don't have to answer? But do you also help financially with TH-cam ? We're trying to decide if I need to work as well or just focus on school? Love your videos btw, soooo incredibly helpful. Thanks!
Amanda Garcia Do you mean do I get help financially from TH-cam, like as in do they pay me? They do! But it's maybe like a dollar a day haha I have a full-time job aside from TH-cam though.
I never had a job in college because I wanted to focus on school. But I also wasn't married and worked long hours each summer to save for the coming semester. If you have to work. I would try to find a job on campus if you can that works with your schedule.
Thanks for watching 😊
@@BritCon2 how do you keep a job if you're moving around?
The Gonzo Fam I don’t ever keep my job. I apply for jobs as soon as we move somewhere and when we leave I let them know. I really have to trust the Lord through the process. When we moved to Washington it took about 6 months before a job opened up for me.
You forgot if you’re a single parent
Vona Syeh you get BAH if your single or co-parenting?
Hey, I have a question can you get BAH without a wife just a child??
Yup
i aint gay mayn
Children have their own BAH rate and it’s lower than that if an adult. But if you were saying was true (which it isn’t) then single fathers wouldn’t get BAH for their babies
Or mothers 🙂
You can get more BAH for a dependent. So if you are a single father in the military with a dependent you get more money. It’s not just a husband or wife. That’s why I’m saying.
Apart from BAH and Food allowance dont you also get like 1500 for anything else.
Are you talking about regular pay? They get paid like any other job, but then also if they are married they get BAH on top of that.
Brit+Con i was confused before i posted this lol. I did more research and saw, there is base pay, bah and the food allowance
I have a question my husband is remarrying to another woman he used me for a citizen Can I get his BAH when he marriage to a another woman even we are not together but we have child together
Lydia Gilcrease If he is in the military and you aren’t and he is divorcing you then you won’t get his BAH anymore. It’s only to him because he’s active duty. Sorry about that.
Broke ass 🤣🤣🤣
@@johnnyfg2770 so who you prefer the broke ass me or my ex-husband😠
So I heard the government started a new this with BAH in 2017 that made it to where they only cover the exact amount that your rent is and nothing more.....example where I live BAH is 1700 so if my house rent is 1000 a month that’s all I’m gonna get with BAH and I can’t save the extra 700....is that true?
Amber Keller No that isn’t true! That would be such a hassle for the government to pay every single military person something different. It’s still a set amount based on zip code and rank.
Brit+Con thanks!!
No problem!
Actually, the BAH policy for all service members joining after 1 January 2018 is different. For dual service couples, only one will receive BAH, for everyone else they will be required to report their housing expenses BAH will only cover that amount. They voted on this policy in 2016 to cut down on BAH costs, but it only affects people joining after 1 January 2018. You can read about it here: www.stripes.com/senate-housing-allowance-reform-would-end-windfalls-of-rent-sharing-1.411522 I also have a video about it on my channel, and WildBlueYonder did a great video on it as well.
Military Spouse Guides thank you! My husband just joined yesterday
Hey! What is Connors rank?

@@kirkdaley3441 what if they're part time
@@kithalie part time I know you'll get BAH when you get activated, in training or get deployed you'll get it.. I'm guard and when I was in basic/AIT I got it.. Also anytime I would get activated or deployed
I like u
