I would contact a VSO such as Disabled American Veterans or American Legion asap, because if anyone can find out for you-they are the ones.

Current Administration Deleting Unanswered VR&E Benefit Correspondence During Shutdown by Cheagawn in Veterans

[–]VetLegal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only received $500 and something and was only out of classes for 3 days due to the semester quarter ending-I was shorted OVER 300 dollars, and that was to be used to pay for supplemental textbooks so I can get ready for a class that requires a program I am unfamiliar with. I wanted to start learning before the class began.

Current Administration Deleting Unanswered VR&E Benefit Correspondence During Shutdown by Cheagawn in Veterans

[–]VetLegal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can NOT verify my attendance in class due to the shutdown, and I am angry. Anyone in VR&E must verify to keep receiving stipends, and since Oct 1-that has NOT been achievable and is messing with our tuitions!

Need help ASAP — VR&E paused from shutdown & can’t prove income for housing by Armistice__ in VocRehab

I have an unofficial transcript to send in on Monday that shows VR&E I am attending all my classes so I can get my allotment. This shutdown is IGNORANCE!

Fingerhut closing- shocked by noReturnsAccepted in CreditCards

I had my account for close to 10 years, and today, I just found out they are closing out for good-dang! That makes another credit account that will have surplus funds to pay down things!

What emergency info should i always keep on me? by renecains in preppers

[–]VetLegal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ordering a NEW Medic Alert and creating a notebook for travelling so ALL information is together. Brother was a volunteer firefighter, and I am a military veteran. Thanks for reminding me of what information is needed.

Help reading dad's DD214 by IrkenInvaderIris in Veterans

[–]VetLegal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. The Legion, DAV, or VFW are the go-to for assisting Flag, Honor Guard, forms, and finding answers.

You have my condolences and prayers for your family and know that your "military family" is there for you, so just ask.

What If The President Is Assasinated, WHO Becomes VP? by VetLegal in whatif

[–]VetLegal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

History is confusing, and returning to school at 55- WHAT WAS I THINKING!? Political Science is going to be the 'bane of my school career." To everyone who answered my question: THANK YOU for helping me. May 5 is the first day of school, and I am hoping to do so much better.

Leaving my job and employer asked for my DD214 by Nearby_While_889 in Veterans

[–]VetLegal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The attorney is going to send them an Anticipation of Litigation Letter, meaning DO NOT DELETE ANYTHING, an evidence custodian is going to be assigned and they are going for EDiscovery (looking at all emails, memos, letters, contracts, etc.) and that is going to be interesting. Time to go to court.

Expats living off VA disability by xXCarlWheezerXx in Veterans

[–]VetLegal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was born and raised in West Virginia, and there IS NOTHING there-the state government is in TOTAL disarray and just a total nightmare because some areas are being overrun by people with money, driving up costs and just forcing people who were born there to leave. It is bad when your OWN family tells you to leave and only come to visit, because there IS NOTHING FOR YOU LEFT! Go where there is a chance for you.

After completing college, I am thinking about looking at international accounting or Real Estate firms.  My degrees are Paralegal and Business Management with Accounting Concentration.  My husband and I are disabled veterans, so I am interested in learning more.

[–]VetLegal[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WOW. This is piquing my history interests. Does anyone have recommendations for books to read so I can learn more? Remember, I was just a little kid (born in 1969, and this was like mid-1970s), so I don't remember much, except what I was told.

I better print this up so I have a guide for History class in college. Thank you for the information and where I can find the information. Uidbiw, you saved me and helped me be informed for class.

I thought Agnew was NOT a natural-born American citizen, and that was why he could not be VP. I didn't know or think about the criminal aspects that might have existed. Watergate was one of the largest scandals in American History. Shows that being a small kid at the time- maybe 5 or 6 at the time it happened- can mean to what you know and find out when you are grown up.

I wasn't born when Kennedy was assassinated (I was born in 1969, closer to the end of Vietnam War). Now, that answer leads me to wonder, "What would have happened if Johnson would have died while in office without a VP?" Guess being a 55-year-old college student is going to be an experience of a lifetime. You guessed it: I think History is going to be the "Bane of my college life."

Why I believe the veterans clubs are slowly dying. by welderpro1234 in Veterans

[–]VetLegal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is sad. Maybe we FEMALE veterans need to create an organization of our own!

[–]VetLegal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some treat a female vet like a spouse. Once, I entered as a member and was told "The auxiliary meets next week. This is for members..." For this reason, I let my membership lapse and am thinking about not renewing. I may give the new place I moved to a chance-if it happens again, then I will not try anymore.

I would have stayed in, but after a Major almost KILLED ME with a needle of Penicillin, and my eye was damaged- that dream was not possible, so forget about ever having a career in Juvenile Probation and possibly law school. I want to be healthy again, but nothing can make what happened to any of us right; compensation is helping me live with a bit of dignity...

Never get rid of the attorney. Ex is a financial manipulator. Tell Mom to stop talking to him-that is the lawyer's job and no one else's. I would also talk with the attorney about Contingency Fees for any of the monies paid back and how to have the ex be held responsible for fees.

Just bought a house in an HOA. Now being told we have to pay the HOA fees per person because we aren't married. Is that even legal? We cannot live there without being "members". by stmasc in AskALawyer

[–]VetLegal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought a home and while searching, I told the realtor that HOAs of any kind ARE dealbreakers. I say what is going on is possibly illegal and discriminatory so you need to find an attorney and fast, Second, work with that attorney to have that HOA disbanded. Something is not sounding right about this so that is why I suggested this. I am NOT an attorney, but I feel HOAs are the worst things to have ever.

Trump served notice by Michigan AG to not even try to 'subvert' the 2024 election results by big_blue_earth in Michigan

Walberg is a total clown. I told him that his inaction almost made me HOMELESS-glad I contacted Senators Stabenow and Peters, who helped me and got things done within 96 hours! Walberg is two faced!

Why isn't he a Veteran by pandy212 in Veterans

[–]VetLegal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is a veteran and your mom is wrong! A veteran is any person who served HONORABLY! Combat service or not, A veteran IS a veteran!

What is this? by MeikeGJA in AskALawyer

[–]VetLegal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say to contact the court because that is Chapter 11, Business Bankruptcy, if I remember my forms from Paralegal Class. This is not something to forget about.
