In January 2026, that 30-day requirement will be lifted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019ll start helping Army Reserve full time regardless of how long they\u2019ve been on orders,\u201d said retired Sergeant Major of the Army Michael Grinston, CEO of Army Emergency Relief, at the Association of the U.S. Army\u2019s annual meeting in Washington.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI\u2019m extremely proud of that,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grinston said he recently received approval for the change from the Office of the Chief of Army Reserve and now plans to pursue a similar change for the Army National Guard. Guard members also have to be on Title 10 orders for more than 30 days to be eligible for assistance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reserve and Guard members sometimes face immediate financial difficulty when they are activated and leave their civilian jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Grinston said he is also working to find a way to help soldiers\u2019 spouses apply online for assistance. Soldiers can now apply online, but if they\u2019re unable to because they\u2019re deployed, for example, their spouse must have a special power of attorney and physically go to an AER office. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">AER, which Grinston describes as \u201cthe only organization that is the Army\u2019s nonprofit,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2024\/12\/23\/soldiers-will-soon-get-more-financial-help-for-emergency-travel\/\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"\" title=\"https:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/news\/your-military\/2024\/12\/23\/soldiers-will-soon-get-more-financial-help-for-emergency-travel\/\">provides emergency financial assistance<\/a> for eligible active duty and retired soldiers and their families and survivors for a variety of needs, ranging from emergency travel to food. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf Tricare doesn\u2019t pay for your bill, the first organization you should call is Army Emergency Relief,\u201d Grinston said, as an example. AER provides assistance in the form of zero-interest loans or grants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the initial days following the federal government shutdown, troops\u2019 financial anxiety was clear, Grinston said. When AER published information online about how to apply for its shutdown assistance, the organization received 15,000 requests for assistance within four days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAbout 3% of the Army came to us,\u201d he said. \u201cThe financial stress is real,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He urged soldiers and families to seek assistance from AER, either online or through their local AER officer located in Army Community Services centers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf anybody tells you no, I want you to contact me,\u201d he said, and provided his email address to the crowd.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The financial aid nonprofit will expand eligibility
