The Student Veteran Benefit Restoration Act of 2025 seeks to protect veterans and other eligible individuals using educational assistance by restoring their benefits if they attend institutions engaged in **fraudulent activities**. It mandates that payments made to educational institutions during specified periods of **misconduct**, such as when an institution was not approved or found guilty of fraud, will not be charged against the student's entitlement or aggregate benefit limit. Furthermore, the bill establishes a mechanism for the Department of Veterans Affairs to recoup funds from these institutions. As a condition for receiving VA educational assistance, institutions must agree to repay the Secretary for any benefits restored to students due to the institution's fraud or **non-compliance**. The Secretary can also file claims for recoupment of all educational assistance funds obtained through fraud if an institution is found guilty by a court, and a process for institutions to appeal repayment findings is included.
