rdnkjeeper Posted July 4, 2010 Author Share Posted July 4, 2010 She was 18 for the last few months of High School and I thought that if they are going to college and living at home they are still your dependant........http://www.vba.va.gov/bln/21/Rates/comp01.htm#FNA. Also when I called the 800 number they said as long as she is still in school and living at home she is....guess I am confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted July 4, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 4, 2010 JR: You are mistaken if he fills out the right form his daughter will still be paid why over 18 still going to school. At least that is the way it worked for me and my kids as they were all summer babies and did not graduate till they were 18. At 70% they will actually pay more than they did when under 18. Social Security will pay up to 13 months more if still in school. Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HadIt.com Elder JR Reihs Posted July 5, 2010 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 5, 2010 Guess it is me who is confused as both of mine turned 18 a couple of months before HS graduation and the VA sent letters about both which stated that the HS needed to provide a grad date on school letterhead in order for the VA to pay as a dependent up to the grad date, after the grad date month the VA removed them from compensation. SS worked the same way unless summer school was related to HS. They both went on with Ch 35 so I did not look into it further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
