My wife and I are currently living in two different states, me in Georgia and her in Colorado, I just want to know if I can switch my BAH over to Colorado so that we can afford both rents. We are living apart but aren't legally seperated so I guess my question is if I'm on PCS orders is there any way to get the BAH for Colorado rather than where I am located.

No. BAH is for where you are stationed.

Unless you have unaccompanied orders you will get the BAH for where you are stationed not where she is living. They will definitely not adjust it to the higher BAH. you will have to pay both rents on the Georgia BAH. If you live in barracks you will not get BAH at all. You will also not get Family Separation as this is a voluntary separation you are doing, not on orders. If you deploy you will get it.
