What types of benifits does a military spouse have if they are separated but still legally married?

You should speak with his First Sergeant... You and the children (if legally his dependents) retain your access to the base/post, medical care, and all your privileges (Commissary, Exchange, library, base legal, housing, gym/pool, etc), until you are divorced (or until he separates, whichever comes first). He will continue to draw BAH (even if he is returned the barracks) as long as he has dependents (i.e. until the divorce is final). HOWEVER, he SHOULD be using that money to provide appropriately for the dependents (after all, that's why he's earning that money). You can work with his First Sergeant to ensure that he does...or else he's defrauding the Government (sadly, his lack of appropriate care will most likely be low on the totem pole with regard to the military cares; if you approach it from the ';fraud'; perspective, however, you're quite likely to get a reaction...)What types of benifits does a military spouse have if they are separated but still legally married?
Medical would still be provided,the housing allowance should go to the spouse until a legal agreement is reached.However they may only be entitled to part of the housing allowance if the soldier cannot be placed in barracks.Now if they are legally separated than the that will all change.What types of benifits does a military spouse have if they are separated but still legally married?
well i went thru this.....our kids had id cards one was under ten so she had to get hers...on our paperwork i allowed him to have physical custody so that he wasnt paying me anything and could keep his house...in our actual divorce papers i was to pay him child support which was kinda funny because he made four times what i did...but in the state of nc doesnt matter someone is paying for the kids...our agreement was i wouldnt pay him a dime...i saw my kids every day...i had my id card until our divorce was final and then i gave it to him to turn in..i signed away all of his retirement..had i not on paper let him have physical custody then yes he would have had to let me have the house and pay for it or he would have had to have given me the housing allowance..because its for your dependents....its something you are going to have to work out..and the nicer you play now..the easier it will be to go thru the divorce on your kids..we actually remarried three years later...how funny...and i kept my id card through out our legal separation i turned it in the day our divorce was final
Try to work it out with him. If not, you're still entitled to all benefits until your divorce is final. Money is usually awarded by the court and you can get temporary orders.
Until you are Legally Divorced he is required to support


You and his Children...pay all the Bills etc...


He is also required to Support his children untile


age 23 if still in school...


Call his CO...asap
Your kids are covered by the military. He doesn't have to pay child support til your divorce him.
