(St. Paul, MN) -- Some Minnesota veterans may qualify for a bonus of up to two-thousand dollars.

Governor Walz and the Minnesota Legislature recently approved a 25-million dollar bonus program for veterans who served between 9/11 and August 2021. Walz says the payment is a thank you for the service veterans provided to their state and country.

The application process for the bonus payment will begin in July.
