Expanding Post-9/11 GI Bill Transfer Eligibility for Veterans' Families.
This legislation broadens the group of service members and veterans who can transfer their Post-9/11 educational benefits to their eligible dependents (spouses or children). The changes specifically include those with 17 years of service and those medically retired, providing greater educational security for military families. This ensures more families can access funding for higher education.
Key points
Eligibility to transfer Post-9/11 educational benefits is extended to individuals who have completed at least 17 years of service in the Armed Forces.
Service members retired due to disability (under chapter 61 of title 10) are now also eligible to transfer these education benefits.
