Q. Under the recent changes
to the National Service Life Insur
ance Bill I have designated that
my insurance be paid in a lump
sum. If my beneficiary prefers
prefers monthly payments, can
such arrangements be made?
A. The beneficiary may change
| the form of payment, provided it
j is to extend over a longer period
i of time. The payment period can
not be shortened. Thus, if you spe
1 cify lump sum payment, your
benefimiary can request equal
monthly installments of from 36
to 240, in multiples of 12 (three
years is the minimum period of
payment other than the lump
sum).
Q.—I have been working full
time and attending school under
the G.I. Bill. Under provisions of,
j the new legislation, can I receive
subsistence payments?
A.—Yes, provided your com
bined earnings and subsistence
j will not exceed the ceiling set by
1 the legislation <$175 for veter
' ans without dependents, S200 for
married veterans).
Q.—I have repaid my guaran- j
teed loan and am wondering if the
guaranty privilege is restored to
! its original amount?
A.—No. However, you are al
! lowed a maximum of $4,000 for
| realty loans, $2,000 for non-real
1 estate loans. If you did not use
the full amount for your first loan,!
! you may use the balance now.
