I need to clarify what you're asking about Volume 7A, Chapter 27. The passages provided reference Chapter 27 (Family Separation Allowance) but don't contain a specific question.

The passages show that:

Family Separation Allowance (FSA) is governed by [DoDFMR 7000.14-R Vol 7A Ch 27; AFMAN 65-116, Vol 1, Ch 27]. Eligibility requires members with dependents or those married to military members who meet requirements outlined in that chapter [AFPAM 65-110 para 6.18.3]. FSA-Type-T may be entitleable upon commencement of temporary duty expected to exceed 30 days [AFPAM 65-110 para 6.18.3]. The amount paid is recorded in pay records [DoDI 7770.02], and financial management flights are responsible for stopping FSA when members return to their permanent duty station [DAFMAN 65-116V1 para 13.5].

Please provide your specific question about Chapter 27 (for example: eligibility criteria, payment rates, when FSA stops, documentation requirements, etc.) and I will provide a direct answer from these passages.
