Tried to use it and they make it more of a hassle than it's worth. The councilor scheduled a video appointment with me and I bought a web cam so I could do it in my office. She never showed and so I emailed her and she said something about needing some paperwork from me before we could meet remotely. I have bills to pay and don't have time to jump through hoops so I'm doing Lyft now to support my family until I find something more stable. I'm a combat veteran who almost died in combat and I'm a hundred percent so if they can't help me I don't know who they're helping. It's frustrating but I'm sick of begging for help it's depressing and makes me feel pathetic and worthless.
Don’t give up! Go try again because these benefits are for you! It shouldn’t be a hassle! That’s why I’m here looking for information because even my advisor i been working with for years be answering emails very late and very vague and he’s no help half the time.
Yeah don’t give up it’s worth it , find somebody else to work with.
Dude it’s literally simple. You letting your own emotions get in the way is your own downfall don’t go blaming them just yet. I say “just yet” cus you quit before any actual issue came up. Print off the paperwork they require you to sign and fill out then email back to them and take the cognitive test on a computer they sent a link to on email and then they’ll have your meeting done as needed
@@USMCVetSlots03xxhave you completed enrollment and started? I just completed all my paperwork tonight but I just want it for the school/stipend
Thank you so much for this great explanation of VR&E Chapter 31!
Great info. Thank you.
Is the VR&E Skills Assessment effectively a C&P exam with the same ability to reduce/increase an overall VA Rating?

Thank u for the content!
Great program, they paid for me to get my degree in Architecture. Only down side is after graduation, they only give you $1200 and you better hope you get a job within 2 months because after that you on your own
)
What do they give you while in school?
So what do you get while in college?
@@thomasmassena1493 My friend that uses this program says $800 a month.

Is it true that if you develop a disability while in the VR&E Program, you can submit a claim to the VA?
I completed the VRE program and received the chapter 31 SA. Recently, my discharge was upgraded to an honorable. Could I change my election from chapter 31 SA to P911 SA?
I got approved quicker than i thought. Had an appointment today and my counselor called and said i was already approved. 😮
Great information, thank you.
Thank you for the detailed information. I have a question regarding the “48 Month Rule”. Some years ago I used 5.5 months of my GI bill benefits, then I transferred 30 months to my dependents. So I have approximately 17 days remaining. I was just found entitled for VR&E however, VRC said “I could only receive 12 months of benefits”. Based on my situation and current guidance, is my VRCs statement agree with current guidance?
Depends what track of service you them agreed upon that’s what they use to dictate what you can and can’t do but from a vocational point of view if that makes sense
I have looked all over the M28C online and done searches via google to find info on how the VR&E Ch 31 claims should handle terminally ill veterans, or veterans w/ALS. Priority processing of patients whose C File is flagged ALS does not exist in the VR&E program. Is that true? If not, what citations are there for this?
Thanks for the info.
can applying and or receiving VR&E have impact on your va disability rating?
@jackmeeoff5257it can reduce your rating how?
I don’t think so I think that’s only if you find a job through them
Not at all.
@@JoseTorres-gg1ks cool. Are you in vre right now?
Does ch31 pay bah and or bas for the education tract ?
VR&E doesnt have education track. The long term track which might include education can match BAH if you have GIBILL entitlement available.
I was told I was too old to attend law school, too old to obtain Masters degree and No to funding for small business. OK to sell real estate in worst market since Great Depression.
under the VR& E chapter 31 will I get BAH while going full time to school? and how much thanks.
If you have unexpired GIBILL entitlement yes... Amount depends on schools zip code, just like GIBILL
Does voc rehab pay for the CPA exam and home study stipend?
As long as the school is approved by the Departmenr of Education and accepte VA benefits it can be possible. You counselor should be able to tell you.
What about vr&e with 100 p&t?
Thats not a prob at all, unless you have TDIU.... 100% p&T scheduler can work with no restrictions
My question is ! I have 5 months of GI bill left however it’s expired because I got out in 2009! Will they still use that bah or the 723??
If you're disabled, i believe vr&e will still pay you like g.i. bill does whether youre passed a decade with g.i. bill.
Vr%e ahould be different than g.i. bill somewhat
What about 100% P&T
Thats not a prob at all, unless you have TDIU.... 100% p&T
So i have used 21 months from using the ch 33 during my time in school, the remaining amount that i have left unfortunately I will not be able to complete my Bachelor. If apply for the Ch 31 to further pursue my path of education, how many months will i be granted?
You get 24 months
Should be 27 but your counselor can have other criteria to approve vocational goals

Chapter 31 and VA are a Joke!
