Va Disability Spouse

[famvet]

I filed a va disability claim in 2008 and on the application for closest relative I put my common law wife in pa at the time and put relationship as wife. On all of our documentation for over the past 20 years (income tax, house we own together, etc) she has always been listed as my wife. This claim was filed in early 2008 and since then in oct of 2008 she moved from house and we are separated although we still own house together. If I get my disability claim will she be entitled to any monthly compensation from the claim. The state we live in pa does recognize common law marriage if that has anything to do with it or is it only if the va recognizes it. She still uses my last name and refers to herself as my wife and we are still on documents together with her listed as my wife.
