About VA DIC for spouses, dependents, and parents | Veterans Affairs

This is a question that is asked quite often and I thought I would share with our community.

If you’re the surviving spouse, child, or parent of a service member who died in the line of duty, or the survivor of a Veteran who died from a service-related injury or illness, you may be able to get a tax-free monetary benefit called VA Dependency and Indemnity Compensation (VA DIC). Find out if you can get VA benefits or compensation.
