 If you are a spouse of a member of the Armed Forces, did you know you may qualify to receive educational benefits?  If you yourself are a service member, you also have the ability to transfer some of your educational benefits to your spouse!  

GI Bill for Spouses

Recent legislation passed by Congress has called for the creation of a military GI Bill for spouses, where military spouses can take advantage of government funds to pursue a college degree.  A military spouse can use the GI Bill benefits for spouses for up to 36 months’ worth of educational expenses.  We at MyMilitaryFriendly are here to help you get all the military financial assistance you need.

The most well known source of funding for military education benefits is the Montgomery GI Bill.  Under this program, a veteran of the Armed Forces can qualify for up to $1321 per month in educational assistance.  Also under the Montgomery GI Bill, spouses can have their sponsor’s unused benefits transferred to them after meeting certain requirements.  No matter what branch of the Armed Forces you’re associated with, you may have GI Bill benefits may be available for you!  If you’re looking for a Navy GI Bill, spouses can get educational assistance.  Army, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, it doesn’t matter; you can still apply for benefits.  Visit MyMilitaryFriendly.com today to speak with a representative in real time and learn how your sacrifice can pay off for you!

Have you heard about the new Post 9-11 GI Bill?  Congress passed the bill in 2008 to recognize the unique sacrifices of those who have served in the military since September 11, 2001.  Under the new Post 9 11 GI Bill, spouses can receive benefits from their sponsor in the same manner as that of the Montgomery GI Bill.  With this new program, however, the benefits for educational assistance are more generous.  A service member may now qualify for college funding equal to the most expensive public undergraduate tuition in his/her state.  For a spouse, GI Bill benefits under this program can be used at any accredited community of four-year college, career school, or flight school.
