Veterans Benefits & Programs

Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Benefits Summary

There is a booklet available that summarizes benefits program of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) for which Veterans and their families may be eligible.   Eligibility for most VA benefits is based upon discharge from active military service under other than dishonorable conditions.   Some VA benefits require service during wartime.
Applications for VA benefits can be submitted online at http://vabenefits.vba.va.gov/vonapp/main.asp.
This document can also be downloaded in PDF format in Spanish.
This information is provided at no charge by Disability.gov.   There is a subscription service available at:   support@govdelivery.com.
