Since your son does not, it will be useless. If he joins the Army reserves, he can qualify for SLR provided he scores a 50 or higher AFQT on the ASVAB. As SLR in the army reserves is to use toward a current or future student loan. If he is looking to join active duty, student loan repayment (SLR) does him no good, unless he has student loans.

]]> Comment on If My GI Bill Benefits End Mid-Term, When Does My Pay Stop? by Ron Kness http://www.armystudyguide.com/education/blog/if-my-gi-bill-benefits-end-mid-term-when-does-my-pay-stop.html/comment-page-1#comment-1889 Ron Kness Wed, 25 Jan 2012 21:54:32 +0000 http://www.armystudyguide.com/education/blog/?p=2705#comment-1889 Hi Mike. That probably is the correct answer being you transferred your MGIB over to the Post 9/11 GI Bill. Your money should continue for 12 weeks or up to the end of the semester, whichever comes first. It would not be the correct answer if you were using your additional 12 months worth of Post 9/11 GI Bill entitlement. In that case, the money stops when you are out of entitlement. Hi Mike.

A total of 36 months because I switched over from the Chapter 30. So far the VA is telling me that they will pay through the whole semester. It is going to be a harsh reality if all my funding just goes to zero in the middle of the semester. I am running out of Post 9/11 Gi Bill (chapter 33) in the middle of this semester.
