"hopefully this will make up for some of the pay that i didn't receive." "i guess, in a way, it came at the right time. i was needing money with the economy the way its now." state officials say -- even in the middle of a budget crisis -- -they set aside one million dollars to split up among veterans who qualify. "those taxes should have never been withheld. we have the mechanisms in place now to keep this from happening, but for those that were taken out before, it's important to make this right." "i think this is one of the first steps in correcting a wrong that is long overdue. i'm very satisfied." we set up a link to the forms you'll need to fill out if you think you qualify at kob dot com. state officials say the claims will take between three and four months to process.
