VA Overpayments on GI Bill (podcast)
Posted on October 30, 2015
The Post-9/11 GI Bill has provided valuable education benefits—including tuition, housing, and books—to millions of veterans.

Listen to Melissa Emrey-Arras, a director in our Education, Workforce, and Income Security team, discuss her team’s recent review of Post-9/11 GI Bill overpayments.
