He (and you) can keep his base privileges if he remains in the IRR. Once divorced, you loose access forever.

The day he is discharged, he and YOU loose all military benifits. Both of you are no longer eligible for ID cards, base entry or shopping privaleges.

Your roomate probably has a reserve ID card w base entry and shopping privalages.

Close your eyes and tell me what you see??? That's the access to base or PX you get when hubby is discharged....nothing.

Here it is in VERY simple terms:

The day hubby is discharged you BOTH become instant civilians and civilians do not have base privileges or dependent benefits.

Got it?

You have zero access from today, well from the moment your ID card was removed.

What others get is a moot point, your mother may well have it due to your father being retired, your room mate might have it due to a disability, but YOU no longer have any access and even if you get a visitors pass can NOT use or enter any of the facilities..............you know like when you have to show or swipe your ID card [that you no longer have] well they do that for a reason, which is to STOP people such as your self from abusing the system.

There are no are privileges once he is discharged. You have no reason to have base access. He is no longer employed by the military, therefore no benefits. And they were right to take your ID card. That ID is military property.

If the roomate served in the military and was honorably discharged, then yes, he/she gets to keep their VA benefits. Same as your husband. Your father... did he retire from the military? Or does he have disability? Then yes, your mother still gets to keep her ID card, with some or all privileges, dep. on ret or dis.

You, on the other hand, are the wife of someone who served their 4 years and got out. He gets to keep the things HE earned (VA benefits). You earned nothing, therefore you keep nothing. He doesn't even have access to the commissary and bx!

If your spouse worked at Target, would you both still get the employee discount after he quit? No! Same thing.... he quit, perks are gone.

Unless he's retiring, he and all his dependents lose base access when he's discharged.

Honey you can still get on post with a visitor pass that will last you about three months. Go to the Visitor Center with current tags, insurance and license. You won't be able to get into the PX with this however, but you may want to look at his alert roster and find out why your I D card was taken away when you guys ar enot divorced. By the way, he needs to pay you Spousal support right now and alimony once the divorce is final, and I would see about getting the courts to start child support. If he lied about the I D card thing he may have been an *** like a solider I knew who took his family off of DEERS when he still needed to support them. You really need to talk to JAG about this on post even though they cannot represent you and I hope you know where his unit is located on post so you don;t have to even look at hubbies alert roster for the 1SGT number. Basically your hubby lied, and took you off his DEERs because of the divorce.

Uh. Unless he is rated as disabled from the VA and is granted base access, his (and your) base access privledges and benefits end at midnight the day of his discharge

What planet are you living on?

Simply being a Vet affords no base privledeges to him or a spouse

the day he is out all base access ends for everyone at midnight for everyone. the ID card IS NOT YOURS it belongs to the government and they can demand its return at ANY time.

if today is his last day you are NO LONGER authorized access to base or base facilities. your marital status has no bearing.
