Subject: Important VA updates for January 2023

To Our Students Using VA GI Bill Education Benefits,

We have been informed by the VA that our current GI Bill processing platform, VAOnce, will be shut down on January 13, 2023.  We are told the new platform, Enrollment Manager, will become active at the end of January. We will not be able to submit any enrollment information to the VA while they are in transition.

For this reason, if you will be using education benefits this spring, we HIGHLY encourage you to register for classes ASAP so that we can submit your information to the VA for processing.  It is our hope that, by processing as many enrollment certifications as we can in December, it will reduce the chance of a delay in your January stipend benefits (the funds paid to you).  While we can never guarantee the timing of VA payments, processing enrollments prior to the college closing for winter break on December 22, is the best our office can do to attempt to mitigate possible delays in payment.  Thank you to those who have already registered for the Spring 2023 semester.    

We will pass along any information that we are made aware of regarding the general timing of January payments, but we do not have any concrete information at this time. The VA is hoping to avoid any payment delays with this system switch, but we cannot guarantee this. It is possible that Post 9/11 GI Bill students may have book stipends delayed due to the timing of this shutdown.

Thank you for your attention and for your understanding.

Please let us know if you have any questions. Remember for planning purposes that ACC is closed from December 22nd – January 2nd and will reopen on January 3, 2023. ACC Staff will not be available during the college closure.

Sincerely,

Your VA School Certifying Officials
