I want to make sure that I have our household finances in order for while I'm at OCS. Can anyone help me with a few questions about pay and expenses? Here goes:
Pay: I found the pay scale info, so I know what E-5 pay is.
BAH: If you are married, do you also get full BAH? If so, does the amount depend on where your home of record is, or is there a set amount that is given?
Expenses: What expenses are there at OCS? How much do uniforms and required items cost and how are they paid for? Is the cost taken out of your paycheck, or do you have the option of paying for them with credit card?
Is there anything else I should be considering?
