Veteran students using the Post-9/11 and pursuing classes through distance learning may now receive the monthly housing allowance (MHA). The housing allowance is half the national average MHA for an E-5 with dependents. The monthly housing allowance for full-time, exclusively online training (no classroom instruction) is $825.00 per month for the Department of Veterans Affairs 2018-2019 fiscal year (August 1, 2018 – July 31, 2019).
