It's important to note, Monthly Enrollment Verification with the VA differs than the Enrollment Certification Form (ECF) with UWF. The ECF Form ensures your courses are certified with the VA. Monthly Enrollment Verification notifies the VA you are still enrolled and nothing has changed with your schedule.

Monthly Enrollment Verification

All Chapter 33 students are required to verify their enrollment with the VA at the end of each month to continue receiving your Monthly Housing Allowance (MHA).  This can be done by calling GI Bill Customer Service monthly via email or text.  The VA strongly recommends using text messaging as a simple, quick, and safe option for verifying enrollment to receive your MHA uninterrupted.  When your enrollment is processed, you will receive the following text message, "Post 9/11 GI Bill housing and kicker payments now require monthly enrollment verification.  Would you like to submit yours via text?  Please reply Yes or No."   The text will come from a number with an (855) area code. Reply "YES" to opt into text message verification.  The text message link will expire 14 days after receipt. On the last day of each month, you will receive a text message requesting enrollment verification for that month.  Reply YES to verify your enrollment if your classes have not changed. If they have changed and you are no longer enrolled in the amount of credits the recording states, contact the MVRC to update your records. 

If you respond NO for text messaging verification and have a valid email address on file, you will be opted into email verification.  On the last day of the month, you will receive an email requesting enrollment verification for that month.  Select YES; my enrollment is the same to verify your enrollment.

If you fail to verify for two consecutive months, your MHA will be placed on hold.  You need to contact GI Bill customer service (1-888-442-4551 ) to verify your enrollment and release your payments.
