What are any benefits to getting married before my fiance joins the military?

I am just curious what the benefits are to spouses of active duty military, if there are any.What are any benefits to getting married before my fiance joins the military?
If you get married before he leaves for the military, it will be easier for him to get all the paperwork taken care of. He will get paid extra for being married and being separated from you. Once he gets out of training, depending on where he gets stationed, you can get to go with him to that duty station. You will be able to live on post/base and have access to all the facilities on post/base. You will have medical benefits starting when he is in training. You can use some of his GI bill to go to college..if you get stationed with him and are looking for a job, you have priority over other applicants because you are married to a soldier..there are really alot of benefits. I would be happy to answer any other questions you have about this or if you just need help trying to figure it all out, just email me! Good luck and best of wishes in whatever you two decide!!What are any benefits to getting married before my fiance joins the military?
Your welcome! =D

Report Abuse



The paperwork will get done correctly, without having to deal with personnel losing you paperwork over and over again. You will have the opportunity to move (paid by military) to your fiances first duty station. The pay increase will be the BAH (basic allowance for housing) rent, BAS (basic allowance for supplements) Food, You will not have to live in the barracks on post. The major benefit is just having everything (paperwork wise) ready and done before you actually join.
if you are getting married do it before he/she joins. you will get health care, and plus get to move to his duty station also he/she will be paid more with dependents. so if you want to be married anyway you should go ahead. also it is easier to get all the paperwork and that done before joining.
The mil member will be insured if something happens to him, if he puts you as beneficiary, you get the money. You'll qualify for medical benefits and if you get an ID card you can use the commissary and PX.
