On form 20-8992 for me it states that I have been awarded educational allowance as follows

Monthly rate.     Effective date. Endindate

986.00.         1-07-2020

none.       2-14-2020

1248.00.   2-18-2020.      3-26-2020

What did this mean? Do I get the 1248 deposited tomorrow?

IDK.  Did you register and are you enrolled in school?  If you are not enrolled in school, you should get a deposit of $$0.00

If you are enrolled in school, normally the school has someone who handles Vets/Vet benefits.  They should be able to tell you your status.  We can not tell your status, whether or not you have enrolled, whether or not this school is accredited by VA etc.

What it "means" is that you are approved for educaiton benefits, but you still have to go through the school.  

Your courses have to be approved and you have to "be working toward a degree" unless they changed that.  You cant sign up for "basketball", 

Girls PE, and Marriage and the family Lab, and expect benefits, unless your approved degree requires these classes.  You probably have to take English 101, Math, etc., etc., as required for your degree.  (They all require English, or they used to.) .

    Tips on posting on the forums.

    1. Post a clear title like ‘Need help preparing PTSD claim’ or “VA med center won’t schedule my surgery” instead of ‘I have a question.
       
    2. Knowledgeable people who don’t have time to read all posts may skip yours if your need isn’t clear in the title.
      I don’t read all posts every login and will gravitate towards those I have more info on.
       
    3. Use paragraphs instead of one massive, rambling introduction or story.
       
      Again – You want to make it easy for others to help. If your question is buried in a monster paragraph, there are fewer who will investigate to dig it out.
     
    Leading too:

    exclamation-point.pngPost straightforward questions and then post background information.
     
    Examples:
     
    • Question A. I was previously denied for apnea – Should I refile a claim?
      • Adding Background information in your post will help members understand what information you are looking for so they can assist you in finding it.
    Rephrase the question: I was diagnosed with apnea in service and received a CPAP machine, but the claim was denied in 2008. Should I refile?
     
    • Question B. I may have PTSD- how can I be sure?
      • See how the details below give us a better understanding of what you’re claiming.
    Rephrase the question: I was involved in a traumatic incident on base in 1974 and have had nightmares ever since, but I did not go to mental health while enlisted. How can I get help?
     
    This gives members a starting point to ask clarifying questions like “Can you post the Reasons for Denial of your claim?”
     
    Note:
     
    • Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed. This process does not take long.
    • Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed. The review requirement will usually be removed by the 6th post. However, we reserve the right to keep anyone on moderator preview.
    • This process allows us to remove spam and other junk posts before hitting the board. We want to keep the focus on VA Claims, and this helps us do that.

  • Can a 100 percent Disabled Veteran Work and Earn an Income?

    You’ve just been rated 100% disabled by the Veterans Affairs. After the excitement of finally having the rating you deserve wears off, you start asking questions. One of the first questions that you might ask is this: It’s a legitimate question – rare is the Veteran that finds themselves sitting on the couch eating bon-bons … Continue reading
