Expands VA education benefits to include siblings of certain veterans and service members.
Siblings of certain veterans (those who died or were severely disabled in service) and siblings of service members who transfer benefits would become eligible for VA education programs. This includes the Survivors' and Dependents' Educational Assistance Program, the Fry Scholarship, and transferred Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits. This bill aims to expand support for these families.
Today, siblings of certain veterans cannot receive educational assistance from the Department of Veterans Affairs through programs like the Survivors' and Dependents' Educational Assistance Program, the Fry Scholarship, or as transferees under the Post-9/11 GI Bill. If this bill becomes law, these siblings would become eligible for these educational benefits, with specific age limits and exceptions for caregivers.
