Yes you will. If it's over 29 days, you get full BAH; under 29, partial. You may also call the DFAS (horse's mouth) to confirm this and quench your worries.

As long as you can prove that you are paying rent you will get BAH. Though if you ''renting'' from parents, they might not accept it. In my RSP units they said that I need lease agreement with my name on it to get BAH.

Also, the BAH will be based on your current living... So if you are living in SF, you will get paid BAH for SF.
