Could Aid & Attendance Help Cover Care in Clearwater?

Aid & Attendance pays toward care, not rent alone. A Clearwater 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. Our Aid & Attendance application tips cover what VA looks for in a care claim.
