2009 BAS and BAH Rates Announced

by Ryan

There is good news for most military members – 2009 BAS and BAH rates have been announced, and the rates are going up for most people.

New BAS Rates:

Basic Allowance for Subsistence (BAS) Rates for CY09 were recently announced by the Secretary of Defense and become effective January 1, 2009.

  • Enlisted: $323.87
  • Officer: $223.04

New BAH Rates:

BAH rates vary by location, so you will need to check with the official BAH rate page hosted by the Pentagon. (note: this page has experienced intermittent down time recently; probably due to unexpected traffic levels).

Hat tip to The Jarhead for the BAH updates.
