Are you an active duty member of our uniformed services?
Yes, sir, that's correct.
Good, then you must know that you may be eligible for VA benefits, which would apply both during service and after your separation or retirement.
Tell me, if i don't know about these benefits right now, i still can be briefed on them when i do my transition to civil life, isn't?
Totally right. You'll equally receive that information during your Transition Assistance Program briefing.
Hummm, good, good. Say, if i have some disability, you can help me on that?
Sure, that would fall into other benefits which VA can offer you, qualifying as service-disabled veteran-owned small business.
And of course, i guess all this has t be done in a certain time, isn't?
You're correct. You can apply for that up to 12 years fromwhen you receive your notice of separation.
Up to 12 years? really?
