Veterans May Borrow 94 Percent of Policy Cash Value
M T Dixon of the Florida Department of Veterans Affairs advised GI Insurance Policy holders they can borrow up to 94 percent of their policy cash surrender value for emergencies. He noted this reduces protection but keeps the policy in force, while surrender ends all coverage. He urged contacting local county veterans service officers for loan applications.
