If they have 12 or more, they are eligible only for the remainder of their education payouts.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside class=\"smg-interstitial-link wp-block-smg-interstitial-link\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/militarytimes\/education-transition\/2022\/12\/19\/montgomery-or-post-911-which-gi-bill-is-right-for-you\/\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__inner\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__media\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" src=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/2358105.jpg.jpg?w=300\" class=\"smg-interstitial-link__image wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" \/>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"smg-interstitial-link__content\">\n\t\t\t\t<span class=\"smg-interstitial-link__kicker\">Related<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"smg-interstitial-link__title\">Know the difference between Montgomery, post-9\/11 GI Bills before 2023<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"smg-interstitial-link__excerpt\">Understanding eligibility requirements for GI Bill benefits can be tricky.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t<\/aside>\n\t\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But veterans advocates said the process as it stands is confusing, because VA officials do not provide explanations of how much of the GI Bill benefit is available until after students enroll at a new school.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cVA should not be making it harder for student veterans to use their benefits and get back on track to their educational goals with unnecessary requirements,\u201d said Will Hubbard, vice president for veterans and military policy at Veterans Education Success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cVA should be finding ways to ease the burden of veterans coming from a school closure situation instead of adding statutorily unsupported hurdles.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The new legislation, sponsored by Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Fla., allows students at closed schools to sign a declaration stating that they understand they cannot receive full restoration of their GI Bill benefits if they transfer 12 or more credits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In turn, VA officials will take that memo as proof that the veterans are eligible for full GI Bill benefits. Instead of waiting to apply for restoration after enrolling at another school, the students can move ahead with a clear indication of the benefits still available to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\t<aside

overrides their objections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The move is not expected to add any cost to VA operations, since the legislation only clarifies student benefit eligibility and does not alter student status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Congressional Budget Office analysts do not have an estimate of how many veterans may be affected by the move, but several high-profile schools with students using the GI Bill \u2014 including Stratford University, Quest College and Cazenovia College \u2014 have closed in the last year alone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The changes will make clear just how much education benefits those students have
