For your awareness, the following message is being sent to Post-9/11 GI Bill recipients.
The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) team, in partnership with the Department of the Treasury, successfully executed the priority task and ensured Post-9/11 GI Bill Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA) payments were disbursed expeditiously. Rather than the anticipated business day delay, electronic payments should be deposited into beneficiaries’ bank accounts later today (3/31/2023). Please review your account after 6:00 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time to validate receipt of the monthly MHA deposit.
For those receiving MHA payments by check, the US Postal Service will start mailing these checks this afternoon (3/31/2023) or tomorrow (4/1/2023).
Again, VA apologizes for any inconvenience the delay in payment posting caused. We remain committed to analyzing the root cause(s) of this event so we can prevent future occurrences.
Sincerely,
Joseph Garcia, Executive Director
