I've PCS'd to Hawaii, also with school en route. My school was at my old duty station location, San Diego.

While still in California I kept California BAH and when I transferred to Hawaii I got their BAH.

When planning my PCS I packed/shipped my household goods probably 3 days before I transferred. It did take about a month for them to catch up with me in Hawaii. However I was able to get loaner furniture from the housing office in Hawaii. I was able to get into base housing right away.

I chose to live in base housing because I planned on getting a large breed dog and most places in town have size/weight restrictions for pets. That's another thing. If you plan on taking a pet with you to Hawaii make sure you read up on and understand Hawaii's animal quarantine laws before you ship them.

If you have any questions please let me know!

PO2 (Join to see) , yes I did. Since I was still in San Diego and maintaining a residence I did still receive San Diego BAH.
