Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are required to apply for Aid & Attendance benefits?
You may need:
- A copy of your DD-214 (military discharge form)
- Marriage or death certificate (for spouses)
- Proof of medical expenses and care needs
- Financial statements and asset summaries
- Medical evaluation showing support with activities of daily living
- Any additional documents the VA requests for final claim review
How long does it take to receive a decision?
Most claims are reviewed by the VA in 90–120 days, depending on case complexity and backlog. We help clients organize their documentation upfront to reduce potential delays.
What happens if my claim is denied?
You may appeal directly through the VA process. While we do not represent clients in appeals, we can assist with gathering updated or supplemental documentation if needed.
I already receive VA disability compensation. Am I still eligible?
Yes — if you meet the Aid & Attendance medical and financial criteria, you may still qualify for additional benefits, even if already receiving VA compensation.
Why is life care planning important?
Life care planning ensures that your wishes for care, finances, and family are honored while you're still alive. It goes beyond a will by helping you make legal, medical, and financial decisions in advance.
What documents are included in your estate planning support?
- Will
- Power of Attorney
- Healthcare Directive
- List of key accounts and contacts
- Care preference notes
Note: We do not provide legal representation. If formal legal work is needed, we coordinate with licensed professionals or our VA-accredited attorney as appropriate.
