Veterans Compensation Benefits
VA compensation is a disability benefits
program that provides monthly cash payments to
compensate veterans for service-connected
disabilities.
To receive this benefit, the veteran must show

• A current disability
• An event in service
• Medical nexus evidence

Total Disability Based On Individual
Unemployability (TDIU)
When evaluating a claim for TDIU benefits, the VA
considers two issues

• Whether your service-connected disabilities
  satisfy certain percentage rating requirements.

• Whether you are prevented from securing or
  following a substantially gainful occupation
  because of the service-connected disabilities.

Monthly Disability Benefits
If you have a service-related disability, you may
receive compensation of up to 3,100 in monthly
benefits for you and your dependents.

VA Pension Benefits
This pension is a monthly benefit paid to
veterans (or eligible surviving spouses) who
have limited or no income.
