Summary

Virginia Military Survivors and Dependents Education Program. Amends the definition of "qualified survivors and dependents" under the Virginia Military Survivors and Dependents Education Program to include that a child who is a stepchild of a deceased military service member shall receive all Program benefits if the military service member claimed the stepchild on his tax return or on his Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System while serving on active duty. The bill also provides that the Commissioner of the Department of Veterans Services may consider the domicile or physical presence requirements with reference to the surviving spouse or surviving student, as applicable, for qualified survivors and dependents to be eligible for a waiver of tuition and mandatory fees if such requirements are not met because the military service member or surviving spouse dies after having established physical presence within the Commonwealth but before such requirements can be met.
