2027 Pay Projection
PreviewNothing for 2027 is final until the NDAA. Start from a bill that actually moved, or set your own.
Passed the House July 22, 2026 (216-212). A tiered raise effective January 1, 2027: 7% for E-1 through E-5, 6% for E-6 through O-3 (every warrant grade included), 5% for O-4 and above.
Senate floor vote pending. Final House-Senate agreement still required. Pay figures from CRS Insight IN12706, checked August 10, 2026.
3.6% is automatic under current law. The tiered bill would pay your grade 7%.
Congress sets no BAH percentage. DoD recalculates it per housing area each December, so your area can fall while others rise. 4.2% was the national average for 2026.
A projection from your own inputs, not a forecast or official guidance. The 2027 raise is set by Congress and neither bill is law; BAH rates are published by DoD in December.
