## Abstract

This final rule amends the educational assistance and educational benefits regulations of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). It makes changes concerning measurement of training time, duplication of benefits, advance payment for work study, and permission for some service members who participated in the Post-Vietnam Era Veterans' Educational Assistance Program (VEAP) to instead elect to receive benefits under the Montgomery GI Bill--Active Duty. These changes restate statutory requirements.
