An Air Force enlisted member paying child support pursuant to a separa- tion agreement placed the amount involved in an escrow account after his wife refused payments.. Those funds reverted to the member under the final divorce decree. Since the member did not contribute to the support of the child during the separation and since the member was relieved by the court of the obliga- tion to pay to his wife the funds held in escrow, the Air Force deter- mination that he was not entitled to basic allowance for quarters on be- half of dependents for that period is consistent with the Comptroller General decisions. 2. Under 37 U.S.C. 403(h) (1976) determi- nations of dependency for basic allow- ance for quarters for enlisted members of the uniformed services may be made by the Secretary concerned, or his designee, and such determinations are final and not subject to review by the General Accounting Office or the courts, except in cases of fraud or gross negligence. This decision is in response to a request for advance decision submitted by First Lieutenant John F. Kaiser, USAF, Accounting and Finance Officer, 354th Tactical Fighting Wing, Myrtle Beach Air Force Base, concerning the propriety of repay- ment of Basic Allowance for Quarters (BAQ) to Sergeant The request was assigned submission No. DO-AF-1303 by the Department of Defense Military Pay and Allowance Committee.
