Best Answer: Active Duty and Reserves make the SAME pay at basic training (yes, you are paid). When a Reservists is on Annual Training (usually 15 days), he receives exactly the same pay as an Active Duty Soldier -- base pay, BAH, BAS as applicable. While drilling on weekends, a Reservist is paid for 4 DAYS basic pay. He does not receive BAH or BAS. (not 2/30 base pay, but 4/30 base pay). Source(s): BAH is an allowance to offset the cost of housing when you do not receive government-provided housing. Your BAH depends upon your location, pay grade and whether you have dependents. BAH rates are set by surveying the cost of rental properties in each geographic location. Therefore, BAH rates in high-cost areas will be much greater than those in low-cost areas.  The only difference between pay for National Guard and other reserve component members is the number of days they serve for their annual active-duty training period — Guard members do 15 days of training; reservists, 14 days. Drill pay for National Guard and reserve members performing inactive-duty training or drills is calculated as 1/30th of the active-duty basic monthly pay for each drill period.

Best Answer: Only when you get active orders (like during basic and AIT). You can get BAH and other allowances if you go active guard. Otherwise, you only get paid for drill weekends and the two weeks a year. But, if you are having problems with housing or bills of any sort, you can ask your nco if you can go see the minute man who can provide you with up to $500 in assistance. You can get it when you are AD meaning Basic, AIT and activated over 30 days for deployment. Or if you are a full time National Guard. If not then you only get drill pay on weekends. For housing you cannot unless you are AD or Yes, you will be paid for every day you drill or on active duty while in the Reserves or National Guard.
