<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>The Army ended the geographical bachelor program last year I believe. <br /><br /><a target="_blank" href="https://www.thebalancecareers.com/army-announces-end-to-geographic-bachelors-3353934">https://www.thebalancecareers.com/army-announces-end-to-geographic-bachelors-3353934</a><br /><br />&quot;However, the Army has now announced an end to the geographic bachelor program for stateside Army installations and Army installations in Alaska and Hawaii. Married Soldiers who are voluntarily separated from their families will no longer be authorized space in Army barracks..&quot; <br /><br />I would go talk to finance and make sure if this is accurate. <div class="pta-link-card answers-template-image type-default"> <div class="pta-link-card-picture"> <img src="https://d26horl2n8pviu.cloudfront.net/link_data_pictures/images/000/304/294/qrc/money-careers-social-share-default-5ac795aceb97de00375a395c.png?1530493140"> </div> <div class="pta-link-card-content"> <p class="pta-link-card-title"> <a target="blank" href="https://www.thebalancecareers.com/army-announces-end-to-geographic-bachelors-3353934">Army Announces End to Geographic Bachelors</a> </p> <p class="pta-link-card-description">The Army has now announced an end to the geographic bachelor program.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Depending on what installation you go to you can have a possibility of living as a geographical bachelor. I am omw to Fort bliss and currently setting up my paperwork to be a GEO as an E6. Policy letters from the installation command should be posted on housing/barracks

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>They are called geographical bachelors- the command has to approve that- and whether you get all your BAH.

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>If these Soldiers are geografical bachelors (without their families) with the permission of the Commander and 1SG, they could stay in the barracks. This determine on a case by case basis.
