§3323 Administration

Summary

Other laws named in sections 3034(a)(1) and 3680(c) must be used for education help under this chapter unless this chapter says otherwise. When those laws use the phrase "eligible veteran," read it to mean a person who is entitled to education assistance under this chapter. When they use "educational assistance allowance," read it to mean the payments under section 3313. Also, when applying section 3482(g) here, the first mention of "educational assistance allowance" means the payment under section 3313, and the first sentence of paragraph (1) of 3482(g) should be read as if it ended with the word "equipment." The Secretary of Veterans Affairs must give information about these education benefits to every member of the Armed Forces at times set jointly with the Secretary of Defense. That information must explain benefits, limits, rules, who is eligible (including any time-in-service rules), and include the application forms under section 5102. The Secretary of Veterans Affairs must also send these materials to schools, training centers, military education staff, and others the Secretary thinks appropriate. The Secretary must write rules to run this program, and any rules the Secretary of Defense makes for it must be the same across all military branches.
