Housing: Overseas Housing Allowance
Military members on official accompanied overseas tours either are provided housing or receive Overseas Housing Allowance.
Eligibility for OHA does not require that family members join the service member overseas.
Members on unaccompanied overseas tours also receive OHA if government housing is not available. The families of service members on an unaccompanied overseas assignment who remain in the U.S. get the appropriate BAH for their local area.
Members assigned to overseas duty must fill out DD Form 2367, “Individual Overseas Housing Allowance Report,” to receive OHA. Check with local housing offices for specific procedures.
OHA compensates members for most housing expenses, including utilities, maintenance and move-in expenses. Rental ceilings are computed so 80 percent of members with dependents in a given location have their rental costs fully reimbursed by OHA.
Unaccompanied members and members without dependents are entitled to 90 percent of the rate for members with dependents.
