Veterans Reimbursement and Scholarship Programs
Upon completion of an eligible state examination for insurance agent/producer, adjuster or bail bondsman, veterans may apply for reimbursement through the Veteran Affairs website.
Applications for reimbursement may also be submitted by written request as indicated below.

***** IMPORTANT *****
Veterans may receive reimbursement of up to $2,000 per test but not more than the VA approved cost of the test. You may receive benefits to retake a test you didn’t pass. You may receive benefits to retake a test you passed if the test is required for recertification or to allow you to retain a license you already have.
You must be eligible for benefits in order to receive test reimbursement. Your total months of benefits will be reduced each time you receive reimbursement for a licensing or certification test.
If you have questions about licensing and certification reimbursement, or applying for benefits, you can access the VA site at www.GIBILL.va.gov and click on "Ask a Question and Find Answers" or call directly at 1-888-GIBILL-1 (888-442-4551), or for the hearing-impaired call 800-829-4833.
