These include the type of reserve component, the number of days served, a reserve member&#8217;s dependency status, and location.<\/p>\n<p>Reservists typically fall into two main categories: the Selected Reserve (including the Army Reserve, Navy Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, Air Force Reserve, and Coast Guard Reserve) and the Inactive Ready Reserve. The eligibility criteria for a housing allowance might differ between these two categories.<\/p>\n<p>For the Selected Reserve, the primary criterion for eligibility is the completion of 12 cumulative years of service and participation in scheduled drills and annual training.
