When I was in only E4 and above qualified for on base housing or off base housing allowance. If he qualifies why couldn’t she simply postpone the move until he can start getting the pay.

He's an E3. Still wet behind the ears.. She is staying here until this gets figured out. Getting him qualified requires their marriage license approved.

All good info above. The Morale Welfare and Recreation infrastructure on any sizable base of any service will bend over backwards to help young married enlisted personnel. As someone said above though, the FIRST thing they need to do is to get your daughter a dependant ID card. She must have that to be eligible for anything including medical care, even if she is living with you until they get their residence issues ironed out. Nothing will be easy until she has that ID. I also second the concept of Navy Lodge as temp housing. Most are modern, comfortable, and available at below the local hotel/motel market prices and housing allowance can be used to supplement the cost. God bless them both. It can be a great life!
