Aid & Attendance

[gdsnide]

I have a case at the BVA for Aid & Attendance for me & my Wife which we both have the Medicial Opinions to prove.

It was turned down by the RO but what else is new?

Does one have to have a 100% ( I have a 100% T & P rating) rating & also a 60% rating to qualify for this?

Also, could anyone tell me how much this would be worth for me & for my Wife?

If I'm right about also needing a 60%er how else could I go about claiming his & hoping to win?

Thank U for your time

I was able to open it. The Va pays for Home health care even if you receive A/A if you qualify. I use there home maker services

IN fact I do have 100% + 70% schedular for housebound, BUT.. Aid and attendance at even the L rate is much higher than the housebound rate at (s)...

I think I get 3440 or close to it... with a L 1/2 rating... please do not confuse schedular or % ratings with SMC ratings, look up the smc ratings under the smc table directly below the compensation rate table. They start at (k) and go up to (s) - (s) actually being paid less than (l)... makes perfect sense huh?

So again, its a kinda fact dependent thing... and impossible to answer unless we know some specifics about your case.
