2022 Non-Locality BAH Rates

2022 Non-locality basic allowance for housing (BAH) Rates are effective Jan. 1, 2022 through Dec. 31st, 2022. 

Non-locality BAH is a basic housing allowance for members under the following circumstances:

• Reservists on active duty for less than 30 days.
• Service members in transit from select areas where no prior BAH rate exists.
• Service members who live in government housing and pay child support, also known as BAH-Diff or BAH Differential. Service members who pay child support and live on the local economy are eligible to receive the “with dependent” BAH rate for their locality.

What is BAH Reserve Component/Transit (BAH RC/T)?

BAH RC/T is a housing allowance for service members where the specific location isn’t a factor in the dollar figure. It applies to circumstances like reservists on active duty for 30 or fewer days or when you’re traveling to an area where no prior BAH rate exists.
