Veterans and service members would get more flexibility to transfer GI Bill education benefits to their families.
This bill would make it easier for veterans and service members to share their Post-9/11 GI Bill education benefits with their spouses or children. It would let them transfer these benefits even after leaving the military and at any time, removing current restrictions. A new option for transferring benefits would also be created for those with 10 years of service.
Today, service members generally must be actively serving in the Armed Forces to transfer their Post-9/11 education benefits to their dependents. This bill would change that by allowing transfers at any time, including after a service member has separated from the military. It would also add a new eligibility path for those with 10 years of uniformed service, with at least six years in the Armed Forces.
