How long will it take to process marriage paperwork?
OK, several questions here. As for how long it takes for the Army, a couple of hours. THis is to get you enrolled in the DEERS program and fill out the paperwork for your ID card (bring all paperwork including birth certificate). As for BAH, that kicks in about 2-6 weeks after this is done (nothing the Government does is fast). The good news is that it is payable from the day you are married, so any amount will be backdated. And no, it does not cover deposit or anything else, you are responsible for that on your own. Yes, the two of you can drive back together, but it is best if he gets a place before so so you do not have to shell out money for hotels until you get a place. And one will be needed, as he will have to vacate the barracks once you two are married. Congratulations.
What is the military marriage process?
Normally it is a good idea for your fiance to let his command know that he is getting married. Once you are married & copy of marriage certificate is taken back to his command, usually within same day you are enrolled in health plan. He will have to go over to base housing to put his name on waiting list for housing. Until you get housing he will extra money for you to rent a house or an apartment. Good Luck
How long does it take to get a marriage license in the Philippines?
It is pretty quick to get one. A matter of a few hour visit to the municipality. However, get the information ahead of time from the municipality as to what their requirements are. If you are a foreigner, you will need a certificate of legal capacity to marry from your embassy. Depending on the municipality, you may also need a CENOMAR (Certificate of No Marriage). This is obtained from the PSA (Philippine Statistical Authority). You also will definitely need your birth certificate and passport. Again, check the municipality’s checklist as some municipalities requirements are different.Also, you can get the marriage license rather quickly. However, realize that there is a 10 day waiting period in the Philippines after you get the license before you can marry.See this post for some good information on marrying in the Philippines if you are a US Citizen.Marriage in the Philippines- Steps for U.S. Citizens
How long does BAH take to kick in after marriage and so you receive the back pay for waiting?

How Long does it take to get the Certicate of legal capacity to marry thru the US embassy in Manila?
Why do you need this document? If you are here and your fiancee is here then get married. Nobody in the United States is going to care one iota whether or not you have this document. It's only required for an American getting married to a Filipino in the Philippines. If you both plan on going to the Philippines to get married then just get it later. From the US embassy's web site..... http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwha009.htm... Certificate of Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage Any foreigner who wishes to marry in the Philippines is required by the Philippine Government to obtain from his/her Embassy a "Certificate of Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage" before filing an application for a marriage license. This certification affirms that there are no legal impediments to the foreigner marrying a Filipino (i.e, that the foreigner is already married to someone else). Unlike the Philippines, the U.S. Government does not keep a central statistical registry for births, marriages and deaths and cannot verify this information. Instead, the Philippine Government accepts an "Affidavit in Lieu of a Certificate of Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage." Americans may execute this affidavit at the American Embassy in Manila or the U.S. Consular Agency in Cebu. Personal appearances of the American citizen applicant cannot be waived, but the fiance(e) need not be present. Philippine authorities will not accept any substitute document initiated in the United States. Applicants may apply for the "Affidavit in Lieu of a Certificate of Legal Capacity to Contract Marriage" at the Embassy's American Citizen Services Branch everyday from Monday through Friday from 8:00 - 10:00 am.(except Philippine and American holidays). The American must present his/her U.S. passport. There is a fee of $30.00 or its peso equivalent for the affidavit, payable in cash only. The Affidavit is notarized by a U.S. consular officer. The consular officer can refuse to perform this service if the document will be used for a purpose patently unlawful, improper, or inimical to the best interest of the United States. Entering into a marriage contract with an alien strictly for the purpose of enabling entry to the United States for that individual is considered an unlawful act. Section 4221 of Title 22 United States Code provides penalties for individuals who commit perjury in an affidavit taken by a consular officer.
