Greetings,

I just used my auto grant. Can I apply for HISA grant ($4,200.00) to pay for the costs of a car port or gurage?. Thank you and God bless.

You might be able to use it for that purpose if the entry to the house from the carport/garage needs to be changed in order to be accessible. It might be a stretch, though. Please let me know how this turns out for you and how the process works, because I am wanting to use either a HISA grant or the adaptive housing grant to add a accessible bathroom onto my house. I have a 3 bedroom 2 bath house, but both bathrooms are about the size of a phone booth (built in the 1950's) and I am starting to have a hard time maneuvering in them.

Greetings,

Thanks for your response. I have used my adaptive housing grant. You might want to check into applying for it. I hope I can use thre HISA for the carport. I have a meeting with the VAMC. I'll post when I am finished. God bless.

be sure and drive home the point about needing a entryway that is accessable from the car to the house. I think if you phrase your argument correctly, you can persuade them.

Don't rule out getting a IL Grant from Voc Rehab. It can be done that way if it will improve your quality of life.

Dear Pete 53,

Please forgive but what is an IL grant? I do thank you. God bless.

Independant Living Grant...I think it's part of vocational rehab.
