This section provides an overview of the general eligibility requirements for various education programs. Additional requirements not listed on this
form may be necessary.
NOTE: A specific single period of service may not be used towards establishing eligibility for more than one benefit. Therefore, once a period of
service has been applied toward a specific benefit, that period of service may not be used again toward a different benefit. However, there is one
exception to this rule. With regard to Chapter 33, a period of service beginning before August 1, 2011, can be used to establish eligibility to Chapter 33
even if it has already been used to establish eligibility to a different benefit.

REQUEST TO OPT OUT OF INFORMATION SHARING WITH EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS
The Harry W. Colmery Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2017 (Public Law 115-48), also know as the "Forever GI Bill," requires the
Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to make available to educational institutions information about the amount of educational assistance to which a
veteran or other eligible individual is entitled. If you are eligible for the Post-9/11 GI Bill (Chapter 33), Montgomery GI Bill-Active Duty
(Chapter 30), Montgomery GI Bill - Selected Reserve (Chapter 1606), or the Survivors' and Dependents Educational Assistance Program (DEA)
(Chapter 35), you may elect to "opt-out" of these disclosures and have VA withhold this information instead. To request an opt-out, or for information
about how to opt-out, please refer to our website at va.gov, or click https://www.va.gov/find-forms/ to complete the VA Form 22-0993, Request to
Opt-Out of Information Sharing with Educational Institutions.
Privacy Act Notice: The VA will not disclose information collected on this form to any source other than what has been authorized under the Privacy Act of 1974 or title
38, Code of Federal Regulations, section 1.576 for routine uses (e.g., VA sends educational forms or letters with a veteran's identifying information to the veteran's school
or training establishment to (1) assist the veteran in the completion of claims forms or (2) for the VA to obtain further information as may be necessary from the school
for the VA to properly process the veteran's education claim or to monitor his or her progress during training) as identified in the VA system of records, 58VA21/22/28,
Compensation, Pension, Education, and Veteran Readiness and Employment Records - VA, and published in the Federal Register. Your response is required to obtain or
retain education benefits. Giving us your SSN account information is voluntary. Refusal to provide your SSN by itself will not result in the denial of benefits. The VA
will not deny an individual benefits for refusing to provide his or her SSN unless the disclosure of the SSN is required by a Federal Statute of law enacted before January
1, 1975, and still in effect. The requested information is considered relevant and necessary to determine the maximum benefits under the law. While you do not have to
respond, VA cannot process your claim for education assistance unless the information is furnished as required by existing law (38 U.S.C. 3471). The responses you
submit are considered confidential (38 U.S.C. 5701). Any information provided by applicants, recipients, and others may be subject to verification through computer
matching programs with other agencies.
Respondent Burden: We need this information to determine your eligibility for education benefits (38 U.S.C. 3471). Title 38, United States Code, allows us to ask for this
information. We estimate that you will need an average of 15 minutes to review the instructions, find the information, and complete this form. VA cannot conduct or
sponsor a collection of information unless a valid OMB control number is displayed. You are not required to respond to a collection of information if this number is not
displayed. Valid OMB control numbers can be located on the OMB Internet Page at www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. If desired, you can call 1-800-827-1000 to
get information on where to send comments or suggestions about this form.
