Approximately $7.5K per month is the amount now but that includes cola's.  You'll be getting the check very soon, based on our experience, I'm so sorry but remember you paid dearly for it...spend it wisely - God bless!

R1, husband has ALS, after thinking pay is approximately $7.4K, I as caregiver get no payment - thought I saw some where  that I could.  As I understand it, only those who enlisted after 9/11 qualify for that - seems unfair to me though...we older caregivers need it more than younger caregivers (LOL)!

yes those upper tiers are that much but def lower aid and attendance is not even close to that amount.   I am not going to even start about that post 9/11 caregiver bs,  my husband does it for free.  I will never understand the VA.
