Check-in Procedures

Report in to the new command/unit immediately upon arrival. Arrival entitlements are tied into the check in procedures. Any delays will result in non-reimbursable expenses and/or forfeit of entitlements. Upon checking-in, the service member will begin to receive:

  • HI rates for Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH)
  • Cost of Living Allowance (COLA)Eligible members 
  • Arrival Temporary Lodging Allowance (TLA)
  • Dislocation Allowance (DLA) 

For Marines, check-in attire is service Alpha. For Navy personnel, check-in attire is summer whites. 

Marines

The IPAC Inbound Section is the central point of check-in. With IPAC in place, there's a two step "Check-In" process.

All Marines must report to his/her Hawaii command and will receive: 

  • A billet assignment to submit to IPAC
  • Command sponsorship for family (if applicable)  

Then check into to the IPAC Inbound Section to complete in-processing.

Marines must complete the check-in process. Marines may delay or forfeit arrival entitlements if they go on leave status after checking into the command but fail to check into IPAC. There are non-retroactive entitlements/reimbursements which cannot be recouped should this occur.

Navy

Sailors arriving to MCBH must contact their future commands to receive their check-in instructions.    

What to do if you Get Married En route? 

If you get married en route to Hawaii, you must inform your Hawaii command immediately and follow the procedures.  The military WILL NOT PAY for travel and housing of your spouse if you do not follow the future command's instructions.
