user: Hi, i'm helping a friend of mine looking for certain information about Rehab and employment, could you help me on that? She's on active duty.[NEWLINE]agent: No problem. Your friend may be eligible for those benefits and services if she's a service member and meet at least one of the proper requirements.[NEWLINE][BOUNDARY][NEWLINE]user: Great, That would be good news for her. Say, can a veteran person get its eligibility period extended?[NEWLINE]agent: Sure, that can happen. That depend on a VR Counselor. If it finds the the person has a serious employment handicap, then its eligibility period could be extended.[NEWLINE]user: Umm, right, right..In any case, what 's the original eligibility period?[NEWLINE]agent: That would be up to 12 years after the individual receive notice of its date of separation from active military service or its first VA service-connected disability rating.[NEWLINE][BOUNDARY][NEWLINE]user: Umm, o.k. at least is a reasonable period. Now, can you tell which are the requirements for VR&E if someone still on active duty?[NEWLINE]agent: That person is already having 20% or higher pre-discharge disability rating? Will he or she leaving soon the military?[NEWLINE]user: That's correct in both questions, yes.[NEWLINE]agent: Well, then you may be eligible for those benefits.[NEWLINE][BOUNDARY][NEWLINE]user: That's good to know. Say, i know this is kinda extreme but, lets say i lost my housing for something like a storm, i can still enjoy VR&E?[NEWLINE]agent: Yes, you can. You may qualify for 2 months of the employment adjustment allowance. You must contact your VRC for further details.[NEWLINE][BOUNDARY][NEWLINE]user: O.k, that really grat. So to get some VR&E, i need to meet the criteria right?
