Women Vets Alerted on GI Payment

The Veterans Administration says the deadline for married woman veterans to claim retroactive GLI benefits is under three months away. Women who studied under the GI bill from June 1, 1966, to Oct. 24, 1972, may receive about $40 monthly per month of training. Eligible veterans must contact a VA regional office before July 1 and prove marriage during training to receive the retroactive sum. Letters with a form were mailed to 78,000 women veterans in February.
