Could Aid & Attendance Help Cover Care in Surprise?

Aid & Attendance pays toward care, not rent alone. A Surprise veteran or surviving spouse who needs help with daily activities may qualify for up to $3,845 a month toward that care. Before applying, review VA’s income and net worth limits so the care bill is counted the right way. Veterans rated 100% service-connected may also qualify; see Aid & Attendance for 100% service-connected veterans.
