How to verify your GI Bill Chapter 1606 benefits each month

To verify your GI Bill Chapter 1606 benefits, first apply through the VA website if you haven't done so. Keep a copy of your application confirmation for your records. Once enrolled, use your school's portal to verify your enrollment each month. You can also log into the VA's WAVE system or call the VA at 888-442-4551 for verification. Remember to verify on the first of each month and report any changes in your schedule that may affect your benefits. Payments are typically made on the first of the month for the previous month’s enrollment.
