Wait, I'm confused. Can my wife at least get education benefits then?
Yes, that's possible. Your dependent family members may be eligible for Educational and Career Counseling and other support through the Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment program.
What if I qualify for the GI Bill after 9/11? Can I get education benefits?
Yes, you may be able to get benefits through the Post-9/11 GI Bill if you've served on active duty for at least 90 days, whether continuous all at once or interrupted for shorter periods over time, after September 10, 2001.
