Ok i asked this question before and got alot of off answers. Every ex-army wife i know got part of their ex's BAH, so everyone that says you arent entitled to anything is wrong. i guess what im confused about is whether i get it while we are separated, or while we're still married until we are separated. i am well aware i do not get anything after the divorce is final. also, the other women i know have kids, so im not sure if that has something to do with it. and please, dont suggest marriage counseling ive already begged him and his response was that he hoped i died, so please,if any of you guys can answer my question, id really appreciate it. if youre not sure please dont leave judgemental or misleading answers.

Thankyou to everyone who helped, i went to the IG's office and they told me that (with or without kids) i am entilted to his BAH 2 until our divorce is final. (which, by the way, is a very significant amount of money). and uh, LOL, to JoeB, it says" BAH" not "BLAH", dumdum, so keep your yak and vomit, and to Dad, no, i assure you, my husband did not tell you that.

Definetly JAG is your best bet. I've had to go to them before (for other type of stuff though) and they were really helpful both times. If for some reason they can't help you b/c there are only certain things they handle....they will give you a list of attorneys that are approved (meaning they aren't just going to rip you off) I did have a friend that's dad was military and when his parents split his mom did get partial BAH. I want to say (but am not 100% about this) that he had to move back to the barracks and they had him listed as a geographical bachelor which makes the BAH less but the dependents still get something while the soldier is still being housed as well. But again I am not 100% about that part. Anyway get down to the JAG office and get all these questions answered. Make sure you take a list of everything you want to know so you only have to make one trip. Good luck! ;-)

Your best answers will come from the Judge Advocate General's Office (JAG) or a private attorney. They can explain your rights as far as BAH and medical insurance, use of the PX, and any other benefits you might be entitled to receive.

I agree with the person who says you need to go
to JAG, as they have the right answers, if you still
have a dependent I.D. card check to see when it
expires and if it is soon then get a new one while
you are still with your husband as you are still en-
titled to medical, PX, Commissary privilages while
you are seperated, and if a child is envolved you
will need that to help you along. During your se-
peration still try and work to see if the marriage can
be saved but only you will know if it can during that
time. Good luck and still use your military resour-
ces as that is what they are there for so use it.

You get a little bit of it, not much. Plus, if you are looking for a more accurate answer, then seek legal advice. The kids have something to do w/it, if you were single you wouldn't get anything.

What the hell is the BLAH!. I guess if you want BLAH you can have it. You can also have some of the YAK and VOMIT too!
