Veterans Succeeding in the 21st Century
Workforce.
The mission statement for VETS is to provide veterans and
transitioning service members with the resources and services to succeed in the
21st century workforce by maximizing their employment opportunities, protecting
their employment rights and meeting labor-market demands with qualified
veterans today.
Announcements:
New regulations have been proposed to allow VA to enroll certain Priority Group 8 Veterans who applied for enrollment on or after January 1, 2009 and who may have been previously denied enrollment in the VA health care system because their income exceeded VA's income thresholds. These Veterans would qualify if their household income does not exceed the current VA income thresholds by more than 10%. The new regulation is expected to take effect in June. To see if you are eligible and to access a calculator to see how you stand against the income thresholds, visit www.va.gov/healtheligibility. If you have any enrollment or eligibility questions, you may call 1-877-222-VETS (8387).
