By staying up-to-date, you're sure to remain informed on how your veterans educational benefits are working for you in Spring 2010. Veterans Benefits GI Bill has followed the VA website changes, emergency funds, and other last-minute fixes to the new GI Bill conundrum for the past several months. Some of the news, unfortunately, has been bad news--like banks turning military members with emergency checks away, or at best, telling them to delay--but then there's also the promise if a better semester coming this Spring thanks to the automated system being built for the VA's website.
