Post - 9/11 GI Bill The new GI Bill provides the most comprehensive educational benefit package since the original bill, officially called the Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944, was signed into law. Many veterans, enlisted and officer, who served on or after Sept. 11, 2001, will be eligible for the cost of tuition and fees, not to exceed the most expensive in-state undergraduate tuition at a public institution. (The percentage of benefit is based on length of active duty service) And for the first time, those enrolled in the Post-9/11 GI Bill program will be able to transfer unused educational benefits to their spouses or children. Those servicemembers not on active duty (including spouses of non-Active Duty servicemembers and all children) may also receive a living stipend equal to the basic allowance for housing rate for an E-5 with dependents, and an annual $1,000 books stipend. For more information on eligibility and application procedures, see the Dept. of Veteran's Affairs Web site.

How does post 911 GI bill affect federal taxes?
mgib benefits are supposed to be tax free. I gave my daughter 9 months of my post 9/11 mgib this year, so I will see what happens when we file our taxes. As far as I know however, the benefits should be tax free.

How long do you have to use a gi bill?
On the old Montgomery GI Bill, the limit is 10 years after your last day in service. On the new Post 9/11 GI Bill, the limit is 15 years. You can request to change from the Montgomery to the Post 9/11 GI Bill, and the limit will change to 15 years. There are advantages to both systems however, depending on your situation. Don't change over blindly, do your homework. I read up on it a bit, and decided to stick with the old Montgomery system. The Post 9/11 GI Bill provides BAH to students attending full time, but your classes have to be on campus, not on-line. There's a catch to everything.
