Because Aid & Attendance is paid to the veteran or surviving spouse rather than to Wheeler Terrace, it can go toward the monthly bill here like any other income. Most families pair it with Social Security, a pension, savings, or proceeds from selling a home. If income looks too high on paper, read what to do when income seems too high before ruling the benefit out.
