Eligible veterans need to have served:
- 90 days or more in wartime
- 181 days or more in peacetime
- 24 months or the full period for which you were ordered, if now separated from service.
- 6 years, if in the National Guard or Reserves
In addition to these service time requirements, you must have been discharged under conditions other than dishonorable.
Un-remarried spouses of veterans killed or missing in action may also be eligible. Veterans who were discharged due to a service-connected disability may also be eligible.
