THIS MESSAGE TARGETS PERSONNEL, ADMINISTRATIVE, DISBURSING, AND PASS OFFICES
REGARDING CURRENT PAY/PERSONNEL ISSUES FOR BOTH ACTIVE AND RESERVE PERSONNEL.

2. ISSUE 222201.  Single sailors in transit between permanent duty stations 
(PDS) assigned government quarters are not authorized Basic Allowance for 
Housing (BAH).  Several single sailors, while assigned to government quarters 
at intermediate temporary duty locations, have been incorrectly paid BAH for 
their previous PDS location.  

3.  These payments are contrary to ref (a) section 10.10, service member in 
transit.  Further, section 10.10.5.1 states that in all cases for a service 
member in transit, the following decisions must be made:  if a service member 
is assigned government quarters adequate for the service member and the dependent, 
if applicable, the service member is not authorized BAH or Overseas Housing 
Allowance (OHA).  Start BAH or OHA effective the date of the quarters termination, 
as applicable.

4.  Per ref (a) section 10.10.3.1, a reserve component member without a dependent 
attending accession training is authorized BAH or OHA based on the primary 
residence location at the time called or ordered to active duty if the service 
member maintains a residence and continues to be responsible for rent, or owns 
the residence.  This is the only exception for single sailors to receive BAH 
while assigned government quarters.  

5. The accession pipeline ends upon a sailor reaching their first PDS which 
includes scheduled training locations over 139 days.

6. The Joint Travel Regulations (JTR) CH 10 was superseded by ref (a) in 2019.  
Training manuals and guides should be reviewed and continually verified using 
the comptroller website.  
(https://comptroller.defense.gov/fmr/vol7a_chapters.aspx).  
Pending updates can be found here: https://comptroller.defense.gov/fmr/change.aspx).

7.  Request widest dissemination.//
