Is it illegal for a civilian to live with someone in the military on post?

Question

This is a girlfriend and they plan on getting married. Her boyfriend lives in single soldier housing and he's an E-5.

Answer 1

It would depend on whom that civilian is. An immediate family member that could be considered a dependent, such as a juvenile brother, sister. A parent that is unable to care for themselves, foster children and such. All could be given permission to reside on base with a host family.
There would be considerable paperwork involved to make sure they received status as a dependent, before they could be issued dependent ID cards.
If you are strictly talking about cohabitation, Not going to happen.
Typically civilian guests would be limited to a 48 hour visit per visitors pass.

Answer 2

No. Obviously you cannot live in the barracks as they are restricted to military personell, but all major posts offer on-post housing. You rent a house or apartment from them. This is based on need... Soldiers married with children will have priority and each situation there is different. A little heads up though, there is almost always a waiting list for on-post housing, so plan ahead and get on that list as soon as possible. Also, in most cases soldiers are permitted to live off-post within a reasonable distance of the post.
If you know what post you are going to be stationed at, get on their website and all of that information will be there.

Answer 3

Here's a confusing answer for you:
In the barracks, civilians cannot live with you.
In on post housing, yes and no. Only dependents are supposed to live with you. However, since on post housing is now privatized, in order for the civilian and military member to get into any type of trouble the housing office would have to go to court to have them evicted, just like in the civilian world.
On that same note, if the military member had a civilian living with them, and wanted them to leave, the MP's wouldn't be able to force them to leave. In that situation, the military member would have to go through the same process as the housing office, and go to court as the landlord in order for the civilian to be forced to leave.

Answer 4

Yes, military housing regulation prohibit people who are not married to, or a family member to reside for more than 10 days with a service member in government quarters. During that 10 days, the guest must be registered with the post housing office.

Answer 5

Civilians can't live in the barracks. But, if military person has base housing you can. Need to be registered as guest. If you cause trouble you can be kicked off base and military person can get into trouble for sponsoring you on base. Time limit depends on your relationship with military person and are you a dependent or just guest?

Answer 6

The person in the military could get an Articial 15 for it. It is definatly frowned upon in the military if the two are not married.

Answer 7

In the barracks yeah, in housing yes and no. If they are not married, then they have to inform housing within 72 hours of them being there and let them know they are there. and they can only stay for 30 days.. good luck

Answer 8

the best thing is to ask the military but families sometimes do live with their military relatives on bases.
