Veteran Readiness and Employment (VR&E)

Subsistence Allowance Rates

Subsistence Allowance Rates

In some cases, Veterans participating in the VR&E program may receive a subsistence allowance while they pursue an educational or training program in preparation for a future career. The subsistence allowance is paid each month based on the rate of attendance in a training program (full-time, three-quarter time, or half-time), the number of dependents, and the type of training. If a Veteran qualifies for the Post-9/11 GI Bill, they may be eligible to receive the Basic Allowance for Housing (BAH) rate for subsistence.
