You will get the BAH w/dependents for the area you are stationed in. You will not get Family Separation until you are deployed longer than 30 days.What BAH rate do I get if I get married and my wife currently resides overseas?
Your situation is called ';Geo Bachelor';, which means you are considered part of the single status because your family lives overseas while you live elsewhere.





Also, you should be receiving Overseas Housing Allowance(OHA), not BAH if you too are living overseas. If you have just transferred, contact PSD and find out the information on the specific situation.

Here is the OHA calculator, though it is subject to change with the fluctuation OHA rates.





Now, if you are living in the US and your spouse is overseas, you will need to specifically go to PSD and have them work on your situation. It's a bit of a unique situation, and they will probably figure out how to grant you a rate that meets the cost of living overseas.
I know the BAH rate for here in the U.S is paid by the zip code. As far as over seas I dont think its BAH, its called OHA. Dont really know how that system works but it should be the same thing.
Yes you will get bah for being married...
since she is OCONUS you will get BAH based on your zip code. at the W/dependent rate once you enter her in DEERS.
