Further information on veterans benefits may be obtained at any VA office or your local service organization representative. Q ? For several years after the death of my husband, I received widow's pension from the Veterans Administration. When I remarried, the pension stopped. My second husband, who was not a veteran died recently, and I was left without sufficient income to provide for my support. Is it possible to have my pension restored? A ? Yes, if you are otherwise qualified fair benefits, you may reapply for death pension benefits. A change in the law effective January 1, 1971, permits restoration of death pensions to widows who remarry and the marriage is terminated by death or divorce. Q ? I did not complete high' school, but was accepted as a college student under the G.I. Bill on the basis of a General Equivalency Diploma test. I now find that I am having trouble with some subjects and cannot keep up with my class. I have been advised to seek special help. Can VA help me? A ? Yes, if your school certifies that you need tutorial help to avoid failing a course, you may receive up to $50 e month for nine months to paj a qualified tutor. Application should be made to the VA on Form 21E-1990T. Q ? Several years ago 1 elected to receive Army retire-1 ment benefits rather than VA1 disability compensation.
