Understanding the Aid and Attendance Benefit

The VA’s Aid and Attendance (A&A) benefit is a pension enhancement available to wartime veterans and their surviving spouses who require assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) or are housebound. It is designed to help cover costs associated with in-home care, assisted living, or nursing home care when military retirement pay and other VA pensions are insufficient to meet care needs.

Key Features of A&A Benefits:

  • Additional Monthly Pension: Aid and Attendance supplements standard VA pension for eligible veterans and surviving spouses.
  • Flexible Use: Funds can be applied toward in-home care services, assisted living facility costs, or other approved care settings.
  • Service-Connected and Non-Service-Connected: Available to veterans with both service-connected disabilities and non-service-connected disabilities, provided they meet eligibility criteria.

Eligibility Requirements

To qualify for Aid and Attendance benefits, applicants must meet Service, Medical and Financial criteria.

Service Requirements:

  1. Wartime Service: At least 90 days of active duty service with at least one day during a declared wartime period (e.g., World War II, Korean War, Vietnam War, Gulf War).
  2. Discharge Status: Honorable discharge or general discharge under honorable conditions.

Medical Need Criteria:

Applicants must demonstrate one or more of the following needs:

  • Daily Living Assistance: Require help with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, feeding, toileting, or transferring.
  • Housebound Status: Confined to the home due to permanent disability.
  • Nursing Home Residence: Residing in a nursing home due to physical or mental incapacity.
