Some veterans will be able to get into the program after being deemed "rehabilitated" but the process is not easy. And, the legal requirements are rather restrictive. There are many different scenarios where a veteran might try to get back into VR&E. One example might be a veteran who completed training and found a job but their mental health or physical health deteriorated afterward whether the job was not longer suitable. A veteran in that situation might be approved for benefits, though VR&E sometimes will push these veterans into a program of Employment Services, only. Another example might be a veteran who was discontinued from services for lack of cooperation. VR&E will need to first determine if the reason for the discontinuance was addressed. The VRC will likely need evaluate you for an EH and SEH, again. So yes, you can get approved, but the process is not easy. These are two examples. I ran into this issue when I sought reentry into VR&E after being deemed rehabilitated. I lost my job within 1 year of completing VR&E. When I tried to get back in, I ran into a lot of roadblocks, but I was eventually approved to become a Lawyer. The Voc Rehab Survival Guide has an appeals template on how to make this happen.
