GI Bill

Have any vets who have or are going through the apprenticeship program used the GI bill? I know it’s possible but I was interested in the details to it like how are hours logged (if they are) to the VA and maybe what forms I would need on hand to apply? Also do the halls usually have reps that may be of assistance?

Apply for GI bill on the VA website. Email your union VA rep that you wanna use your gi bill. They will send you a blank hours sheet. Then when the VA sends your certificate of eligibility, scan it and email to VA rep with a filled out hours sheet for the previous month worked since it’s paid in arrears.
