United StatesFairness in Veterans’ Education Act
What it does
This bill modifies the process for repaying service members and veterans who paid to keep benefits under the Montgomery GI Bill, but later chose to utilize Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits. Specifically, the bill removes the requirement for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to issue the repayments with the last monthly housing stipend under the Post-9/11 GI Bill. This requirement has limited the repayments to individuals who are receiving stipends.
More detail
Under the bill, the VA must make such a repayment before the exhaustion of the individual's entitlement to education assistance.
