Can I Receive VA Benefits?
I already receive my social security. I just want to know if I get VA benefits even though he didn't retire from the military. But he died as a results of his injuries while in the military. He passed away in 2013. Do I receive VA benefits?
Hi,
I'm sorry for your loss.
Unfortunately, my only area of expertise is Social Security, so I'm unable to answer questions about VA benefits. I can only tell you that if you do qualify for VA benefits it will have no effect on your Social Security benefits.
Best, Jerry
