Why are we asking for your help? As of March 2023, we are a NonProfit 501(3)c, so while the site used to earn some income from ads, we can no longer do that.
We are relying on you. The site costs about $15,000 per year, with no paid staff. We have only one person doing all the work: our founder, Tbird. We do need to hire an assistant for her, but Tbird has agreed to stay on and keep up the work for a while.
If you believe in our mission, if we have helped you, and you can help us, that would be great! Times are tough, and I get that. If you can help, that would be fantastic! If you can't, I appreciate you taking the time to read this and wish you well.
Monthly Commitments Help Us Plan If you can donate monthly, it will make planning for the future easier.

Post in What is the DIC timeline?
broncovet posted an answer to a question,
Good question.
Maybe I can clear it up.
The spouse is eligible for DIC if you die of a SC condition OR any condition if you are P and T for 10 years or more. (my paraphrase).
More here:
Source:
https://www.va.gov/disability/dependency-indemnity-compensation/
NOTE: TO PROVE CAUSE OF DEATH WILL LIKELY REQUIRE AN AUTOPSY. This means if you die of a SC condtion, your spouse would need to do an autopsy to prove cause of death to be from a SC condtiond. If you were P and T for 10 full years, then the cause of death may not matter so much.Picked By

We Closed the Notice for Request 1
Tbird posted a record in VA Claims and Benefits Information,
Question Poised:
We closed the notice for request 1. VA message states Closed the for Request 1 or 2 or some #. What does it mean?
It is a status message that doesn't tell you where your claim is in the process.
