Question?

Assume vet is awarded TDIU, P and T.

1. Is there a waiting period for spouse to be eligible

for ChampVA?

2. If so, how long?

Thanks Jim

Here is a link to CHAMPVA facts from the DVA site:

Read through it to become informed. Not positive but I believe the eligibility starts the date T&P was awarded. So keep those bills. Why don't you give their 800# a call and ask questions.

Here is the link for date of eligibility (It's PDF so you need Adobe Acrotat Reader):
