The 'G' code in Basic Allowance for Quarters (BAQ) designates a child under 21 who is not in the member's custody. This classification is important in determining the eligibility for housing allowances, which can differ based on custody situations. Recognizing this distinction helps ensure that service members are accurately compensated for their housing needs based on their family dynamics.

In the context of the other options, 'A' pertains to children who are in the member's custody, while 'C' and 'D' refer to a spouse and ward of the court, respectively. Each of these codes plays a role in the overall BAQ framework, but the 'G' code specifically points to the scenario where the child is not in the member's custody, which addresses unique circumstances affecting the service member’s situation. Understanding this distinction is vital for accurate benefit assessment.
