Veterans Benefits

Veterans Aid and Attendance Pension Benefit

The Veteran Affairs Aid & Attendance Pension program offers financial assistance to qualifying veterans and their spouses, providing up to $1,830 per month for veterans, $1,177 for surviving spouses, or $2,169 for couples. Additionally, the VA allows households to deduct the annual cost of in-home care when calculating pension benefits, potentially granting additional income to families exceeding the pension benefit threshold.

This supplemental income can greatly aid families struggling to afford home-based elder care. Unsure of eligibility? Angel Senior Care offers assistance in determining qualification for Veterans or VA spousal benefits - contact us today for guidance.
