If you were injured or developed a medical condition during or due to your military service, you may qualify for VA Disability Benefits.
-
You must have a service-connected disability rated at 10% or higher.
-
You must have been discharged under conditions other than dishonorable.

Monthly payments range from approximately $127 to over $3,000, with additional compensation available for severe disabilities or dependents.

At least 90 days of active duty service, with one day during a wartime period.

Veterans who qualify may be eligible for Aid and Attendance benefits, which provide additional monthly assistance if you need help with daily activities.
