Did he die from a service connected condition?

 If so then you should be getting DIC benefits,

A Veteran is a person who served this country. Treat them with respect.

A Disabled Veteran is a person who served this country and bears the scars of that service regardless of when or where they served.

Treat them with the upmost respect. I do. Rejection is not a sign of failure. Failure is not an option, Medical opinions and evidence wins claims. Trust in others is a virtue but you take the T out of Trust and you are left with Rust so be wise about who you are dealing with.

I dont understand what the 940 amount is for,  Were you awarded a wartime  pension? or is this from SSA

I am a widow of 2 disabled  veterans myself  and regret your loss.

Can you scan and attach the DIC denial here, as to the reasons and Bases part and the evidence list?

(cover the C file number, name and address prior to scanning)

This is an overview of ways to attain DIC:

Sameo to us -They (VA) have 38 CFR ,38 USC, and M21-1- but so do we.
