Will I lose custody if I join the military?
In theory, this means your military status shouldn’t negatively affect your child custody case. However, some military service members still worry that a judge will view them as less suitable primary caretakers for children because the possibility of relocation and deployment always hovers over their lives.
Do I get Bah If I pay child support?
If you claim any dependents or pay child support, you generally receive BAH “with dependents.” This type of BAH is the same regardless of the number of dependents. BAH rates are published by the Defense Travel Management Office.
How long does it take the army to back pay?

Is Bah used to calculate child support?

Accordingly the entire BAH/BAS income is imputed in child support calculations and will be included by the non-military spouse in his or her proposed child support calculations to the Judge.
