VET Extension Act of 2025

This bill would change the Post-9/11 GI Bill education benefit program run by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Veterans and service members who have used up their benefit, used some of it in the prior 180 days, and need remedial or deficiency courses that push their degree past the standard 120 semester credit hours could get up to 15 more months of benefits. The bill would also raise the overall cap on combined VA education benefits for these individuals by the number of added months. It would let service members without dependents choose to transfer part of their benefit to a future dependent, and name that dependent later.
