BAH -Basic Allowance for Housing
Im trying to rent an apartment but because of my BAH my income is to high to rent. If the landlord wont include my BAH, which is tax free, I would be able to rent the apartment.

I am in the Army and when I applied for my home loan they value the BAH and BAS about 15% higher to adjust for tax.
Now if you are applying for assitance or for a low income apartment the land lord may recieve other money. WIC doesn't take your BAH into account so if it is a low income government assisted housing I wouldn't think they should take add your BAH.

For income limited housing they are required to consider all income. Just because the BAH is tax-free doesn't mean that they can ignore it.

Yes, they need proof of your income....they're going to ask you for a copy of your husband's LES...and you're going to have to provide them that information! If you only put yourself on the lease and make enough to rent the apartment then you don't have to put your husband on the lease and they won't require his LES.
P.S. No one's income is too high to rent an apartment...that's lame.
