I need help. Above are the qualifications that I pulled off of e-benefits on the VA website. I was told by my adviser that my income played a part in voc rehab eligibility. I actually had to bring in my income tax form but when I look at the eligibility requirement no where in the requirements do I see were eligibility is based on income. Can someone tell me if income plays a part or if I am getting the run around?
