GI Bill looks better for spring, VA says

January 20, 2010

Officials reported Jan. 20 they have processed 72,000 of the 103,000 GI Bill claims received for the spring. Their goal is to have all 103,000 claims processed by Feb. 1. As part of its effort to speed claims, VA officials have contacted university and college administrators and student veterans to urge everyone to file for benefits as soon as possible. In particular, VA officials want educational institutions to submit enrollment information for students without waiting for students to receive an official eligibility certificate from VA that shows what benefits they have earned.
