Hire Student Veterans Act

The Hire Student Veterans Act expands the Work Opportunity Tax Credit to include veterans using educational benefits (like the GI Bill) to attend school. It directly affects employers who hire veterans receiving education assistance under specific veterans' education laws (such as Chapter 30, 33, or 1606/1607 of U.S. Code). The bill adds these veterans to the tax credit program, allowing employers to claim a credit for hiring them, while adjusting the minimum employment period requirement to exclude this group. This change applies to veterans hired after the bill's enactment, providing a financial incentive for employers to hire student veterans.
