Legion Pushes Simplified Law To Aid GI Bill Loans
The American Legion proposes a six page amendment to ease veteran loan access under the GI bill. It would let veterans obtain a certificate of eligibility from the VA, apply at any lending agency, have the lender decide risk, and avoid VA preapproval, cutting red tape. The bill would still involve VA underwriting for large loans but aims to streamline approvals and expand home, farm, and business loan activity for veterans.
