With pleasure. Let me ask you something. Have you chose school yet?
No, i had not do that, i was searching for info first.
Understood. Then you have not applied for these benefits yet?
Well, you saying that like this, i think i would be interested, yeah.
Excellent. All you need to do is going online and fill out a VA Form 22-5490 or Dependents Application for VA Education Benefits. After you fill that form out, you'll have to send it to the regional benefit office where in theory you would want to go to school.
Oh, in that school choosing, it has anything to do with it, the fact that the child parent was serving and died on duty on 2009?
Certainly, it does. That fact, opens the possibility for the child to use both Fry scholarships and the dependent educational assistance. The down side would be that the child may use only one of the programs at a time.
Right, i guess is for the better that way. Getting all over the school choosing, is there any tool i can use? An app, website, guide?
In that regard, please make use of the GI Bill comparison tool. This application will be useful at the moment you want to pick up a school.Little reminder: Remember to contact the school's certifying official so he or she can assure you that the program you choose gets approved for VA benefits.
And what should be done in case someone has already started its education? i'm asking because i remembered that a relative has this situation but wants to get benefits.
