His 1st Sgt has nothing to do with it. The regulation that governs child support is AR 608-99... you can google it and do some research. Then, call the base IG. If the child support is court ordered, he has to pay it. It makes no difference if he draws BAH or not (although he is entitled to partial BAH to pay his child support). Sounds like he is trying to get out of paying. Edit: his command ordered him to pay? That's not legally binding. You need a court order. Child support is court ordered.

Someone before me mentioned looking at Army Regulation 608-99 which is the best advice. Additionally if you are a military dependent yourself, whether your military spouse is deployed or not, you are entitled to legal assistance. Even if he has sought legal assistance from that office, they are required to find you another attorney. Talk to a professional and don't believe the other party. He will tell you anything to keep you from going to his command. Alot depends on whether there is a court order or not.

DFAS will garnish his wages, send the $$ to the state and on to you. If the child is his, I doubt JAG would tell him to stop paying support. He is authorized BAH-Diff if he is living in the barracks and paying child support. If he is off post, he would get the full w/dep rate. I would go to your Family Support Center on Bragg and ask these questions. If the child is his, then I’d get a court order directing him to pay child support.
