What are Veterans Administration Pension Benefits?
VA Disability Pension is a benefit paid to wartime veterans who have limited or no income, and who are 65 or older. If they are under 65, then they will need to be permanently and totally disabled due to non-service connected conditions. Widows, widowers and dependent children may also qualify for Death Pension benefits. This Death Pension is a needs-based benefit paid to an unremarried surviving spouse, or an unmarried child of a deceased wartime veteran.
