Kids up to age 26 get education benefits from VA it is about a grand a month. Some states also have education benefits for children of disabled vets.

Short answer, no.

However, you can pass your Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to them and they can apply for a lot of scholarships and FASFA grants.

You’re saying “No” to what exactly?

Check your state's VA programs...in CA a dependent of a Vet with a 0% rating and above can go to public CSUs and UCs.

Yes, look into DEA (dependents educational assistance)!

Some states also offer dependents in your situation tuition free education in state universities.
