Thank you everyone for the replies! I guess my situation might be somewhat unusual. I reside in PA and hold a PA driver's license, but beyond that I have no ties to this state, and in fact, have no interest in living here. If I attended CDL school in another state I would most likely begin my search for employment in that state. I appreciate the information, the law seems a bit confusing on this topic. It's also good to know that it takes the VA that long to get you your certificate of eligibility, though, I suppose that really comes as no surprise.

Good Morning! First of all, thank you for all of the information this website provides, it is really useful and has helped me tremendously while I have been preparing to enter the world of truck driving. My question is this: I currently hold a Pennsylvania Driver's License. Does it matter which state I attend CDL training in? I was not sure if I had to attend CDL school in the state in which I held a valid driver's license in or not. Also, if anyone has any advice or experience with using the GI Bill to pay for CDL school, I would greatly appreciate it!
