If you end up owing your ex-wife alimony, that would have to come out of your base pay I believe.

Are you required to pay child support? Are you living in government quarters (barracks) or off base? It makes a difference because you can get either BAH with dependents for child supports purposes only OR they may give you BAH Differential if living in government quarters. It&#39;s case by case basis for your personnel administration to determine. Paperwork is key. LCpl Ferdinand Hughes Wed, 06 Jun 2018 07:26:20 -0400 2018-06-06T07:26:20-04:00 2018-06-03T10:44:04-04:00
