  3. I am 100% TDUI P & T will the Housing Allowance help pay my mortgage Housing Allowance Veterans with 100-percent disability are provided a housing allowance, which can be used for rent or the payment of a mortgage. If the veteran does not own a home, the federal government will provide to the veteran with a grant that pays up to 50 percent of the home's value, not exceeding $46,000. A 100-percent disabled veteran is also eligible for home modifications if she owns a home. This money can be used to renovate a veteran's home to make it more user-friendly for the disabled veteran. what does this mean?

    2.my bilaterial factors rt. shoulder combined with my left shoulder and left bicep will this give me the  40% need for a 100 percent rate.
