Surviving spouses and dependent children of deceased Veterans may be eligible for VA benefits depending upon the circumstances of the Veteran’s death and other criteria. These potential benefits include compensation for a service-connected death (DIC), death pension, education benefits, educational loans, CHAMPVA, and home loan guaranties. In some cases, remarried spouses regain their eligibility for DIC after marriage after the Veterans’s death has been terminated. Please check with our Veterans Service Officer nearest you for more information and assistance with your claim.
