Can I Get Additional Benefits Under the Post 9/11 GI Bill?

Yes Josh, you should be able to get an additional 12 months of benefits under the Post 9/11 GI Bill once you exhaust your Montgomery GI Bill benefits – that is the key. If you switch before exhausting your MGIB benefits, you would only get the same number of months that you have left on your MGIB.

As long as you stay in the ARNG, you also qualify for the MGIB-SR, however, under the Rule of 48 if you qualify for multiple GI Bills, you can only get a maximum of 48 months of GI Bil benefits.
