Among the Act’s provisions was the elimination of the deadline to use benefits within 15 years for certain beneficiaries, and changes to the formula for providing a monthly housing allowance. As of December 2018, the Veterans Benefits Administration (VBA) had not implemented at least two key requirements of the Act related to the housing stipends (sections 107 and 501). This project’s purpose is to implement those key requirements and obtain a fully functional and operational solution that includes all software and/or software development, integration, testing, maintenance, and training.
