The U.S. Treasury requires that all payments be made electronically to veterans, caregivers, and other stakeholders. Effective October 1, 2023, all Beneficiary Travel payments must be paid
electronically. You may have these payments deposited to a bank account, credit union account, or to a Direct Express Debit MasterCard. Please go to https://godirect.gov/gpw/ or call
