Variations on this have been asked multiple times today.

There are a number of VA programs that a survivor of the veteran might be eligible for (VA Survivors Pension, VA Dependency and Indemnity Compensation, VA Home Loans, Scholarships, Healthcare coverage, etc).

The BEST way to determine what Veteran programs that the survivor is eligible for is to talk to your State's Veterans Affairs office. They will be in the best position to tell you which state and federal programs they would be eligible for.

Do an internet search for your state and add the terms 'Veteran Affairs' onto it (i.e., Texas Veterans Affairs) and it should give you the contact information.

Check with your state Veterans Service. If you have been service connected disability for over 20 years your spouse may be entitled to DIC (Dependents Indemnity Compensation). My spouse will be eligible as I have been rated 100% now for more than 23 years.
