I do not believe you cannot extend Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits after they're exhausted, but I'm not sure. Best bet is to speak to a VA rep about your specific dilemma. Hope this helps! Aaron,

If you fulfill this criteria, you can apply for transferability of the remainder of your Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits (which is a year) through the Department of Defense.
