Will a Veterans Affairs (VA) Education debt hurt my chances of using the GI Bill in the future, if paid off?
I served 4 years in the USAF and separated last fall, right before attending a semester of school. Then I moved down to Tampa, and saw that I owed the VA some Education money (a small amount) from when I dropped/switched classes near the beginning of the semester. By the time I was notified of the debt (the letters were being sent to my old address), it had been forwarded to the US Treasury for collection. It's since been paid off.
I'm worried now that I'm transferring my benefits to a new school - even though my debt has been paid in full, could that mean I can't claim any GI Bill benefits anymore? I'm utilizing the Post-9/11 GI Bill and I am still in my entitlement window.
Any educated information (not guesses) would be greatly appreciated. Also, please keep any judgements you may have to yourself since you do not know the whole story.
Thank you!

Your husband needs some credit counseling-quick. utilising your GI disbursements, that are paid to you (though this may have replaced) to pay down debt is FRAUD. individuals bypass to penal complex for that. EDIT: Rereading the excellent answer decrease than and your question, he's utilising classes innovations? AND he has loans? TA pays as a lot as 100%; both there is extra to this tale you at the instantaneous are not telling us, or your husband isn't telling you the completed tale...in case you won't be able to arise with the money for college regardless of this innovations-you possibly qual for federal gives you (which do not could be paid lower back.) both he and also you want to bypass the training workplace, then to the commercial help workplace on his campus.
