At Veterans Law, we are committed to fighting for veterans that were wrongly denied by the VA and are in need of assistance. We understand the challenges and stress that go along with the process of obtaining benefits for veterans and their families.
In our dedication to serving those who served, we not only address the needs of veterans themselves but also extend our support to their spouses, recognizing the critical role they play in the veteran’s journey. Often, we receive questions from veteran’s spouses about what benefits are available to them. In this blog, we will be going over the different benefits available to spouses of veterans such as healthcare, educational assistance, and survivor benefits.
Spouses of veterans are eligible to receive a variety of benefits and compensation through the Veterans Administration (VA), acknowledging and honoring the sacrifices made by veterans. The majority of benefits are accessible to spouses of veterans who either have a permanent disability, often linked to their service, or have deceased while receiving a VA pension or compensation. Additionally, the veteran must have received an honorable discharge. To be eligible for most benefits, the spouse must have been married to the veteran for a minimum of one year.
More information about the different types of benefits for spouses of veterans can be found at the U.S Department of Veteran Affairs website: https://www.va.gov/.
