Time Limit
Like Drywall said - you have 10 years from the date of release from active duty to use your GI Bill Education benefits. Its the old "Use it or Lose" rule.
Catman has a good point on Vocational Rehabilitation. However, generally you have 12 years from when VA awards a service connected disability rating that qualifies you to apply for Voc Rehab. (0% doesn't qualify, it used to require only a 10% rating but now requires a 20% rating). Also, the purpose of Voc Rehab is to re-train you to get you back into the job market. So if you are already employed it is hard to get accepted for the program.
One clarification on the Home Loan Guaranty. You can use it as many times as you want, as long as you no longer have an interest in the home previously covered by the guaranty. Simply paying it off doesn't entitle you to another loan guaranty, you have to sell it or otherwise divest yourself of any interest in the home.
