Just letting you know that you might see a couple of courses listed in the classroom for SSI and SSDI recipients. Just letting you know that these are not completed yet and I will post here once they are completed in their entirety and ready for you to view.

As a certified benefits planner we don’t get much training around VA benefits and I’ve been getting a lot of questions about this recently.
