AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill changes federal law on who may transfer Post-9/11 GI Bill education benefits to eligible dependents. It replaces the term "member of the uniformed services" with "individual" in the eligibility rules. It adds two new groups who may transfer benefits: people who have completed at least 17 years of service in the Armed Forces, and people retired from the Armed Forces for disability under chapter 61 of title 10. The existing service-length requirements remain in the law.
