The part that they don't tell you is how long you will wait for your check. I didn't see a dime for 18 months after I started school.

18 months? Wow! I've never had that problem. It took a couple months for my benefits to start, and when I changed from one school to another there was a delay of a few months because the new school official sat on the paperwork then it had to go to VA for their approval. But otherwise, the direct deposit goes to my bank around the first of each month. VA has made the monthly certification process easier too with an online form.

They did something similar when my husband started going to school...the check didn't come and didn't come. He finally went to Bob Lagomarsino who was our Congressman at the time and the check came not long after that. Bob was always very responsive to the needs of his constituents. It is too bad that he got bumped out by Huffington who was, imo, selfish, good for nothing, and couldn't care less about constituents.

They've improved the system a lot. I took classes in 1985 and it took me about 18 months to get my first check. I took some more classes over the last two years and most of the checks arrived immediately.
