Michelle asked:

I have a question regarding BAQ(BAS/BAH).

When is a service member not eligible to continue receiving BAQ with spouse?

We have been separated for 10 years.

We became divorced in 2005 and he is still collecting BAQ with spouse. He is an E-9.

We have 2 children together he has no visitation.

He is stationed in Tennessee and I live in California.

He is attempting to avoid resolution of his retirement by stating that we were married for 9 yrs, 7 months.

He was not paying guideline child support (CA) for many years until October 2005.

I have many unpaid medical bills for our children and he will not contact tricare to help with billing issues.

He tricked me into allowing him to claim me and our kids on previous tax returns, stating that I had to or he’d lose the extra money from VHA/BAQ (I have copies of his tax records from 2000).
