VA Improved Pension with Aid & Attendance
Your family may be missing a benefit worth up to $2,983 a month.
Many war era veterans and their families have been turned down by the VA — not because they don't qualify, but because they don't fully understand the program.
We are a network of professionals dedicated to educating veterans and their loved ones about VA benefits that may help them financially. Watch our free video, then book a personal Zoom call with our team.
There may be a look-back period — meaning the sooner you start planning, the better. Many families wait too long and miss out on benefits they were entitled to. Watch our video and schedule a call today.
What Is This Benefit?
Improved Pension with Aid & Attendance
Aid & Attendance (A&A) is an enhanced VA pension benefit available to wartime veterans — and their surviving spouses — who need help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, or eating, or who require assisted living or nursing home care.
It provides a monthly tax-free payment on top of the basic VA pension. The veteran does not need to have served overseas — they only needed to be enlisted during a recognized wartime period.
