Does my BAH change when TDY for school?

I am Active duty national guard (FTNGD-Counterdrug) and am going TDY for BLC. I have dependents and normally receive full BAH. Will my BAH change or remain the same (based on my duty station zip code)?

Im not an expert here but it seems to me that your BAH is based on your HOR zip code.

It depends on your orders. How long is your school? If it's the standard 2 weeks that the reserve and NG component get then you are not getting BAH. If you're AGR your orders should cover you and there won't be a change to your normal LES (HOR will remain the same).

AGR is based on your unit of assignment location.

Everything else is based off your home of record.

This is for title 32 orders. Your state may vary, but I doubt it.

Not for TDY on AGR, it stays the same.
