If you are a Soldier on active duty in whatever form, and you are married, you will receive some form of BAH. During OCS, you are on active duty, therefore you will receive BAH.

Yes, depending on the duration you will either receive BAH Type 1 based on your zip code or what used to be called BAH type II (BAH RC/Transient) I believe it is 30 days but could be up to 90. You will also receive the with dependent rate if your dependent isn't active duty and they are enrolled in DEERs. You will also receive Family Separation Allowance at $150.
Type II BAH with dependent O1 is just shy of $1000 a month.

I had a great time at OBC, surrounded by west point graduates just a few years younger than me but I made double because of my prior enlisted years and married entitlements, of course everyone else kept what they made while I sent my money home.....

That's an interesting question...I went to USAF OTS way before I got married, of course, still, it is interesting to ask...I'd suppose for those who go while married, or with kids, I'd expect that'd ne the case, though, of course, that'd be only a guess on my part, you understand...
