On the pay charts for Disability and Compensation it says that if you have more than a 30% disability than you are suppose to get an additional amount if your spouse is on Aid and Attendance. I was rated at 90% with 100% unemployability from July 2010. My husband was on aid and attendance from 1982 until he passed away in 2018. I submitted a form that listed him as my dependant and that stated he was on AA and since his AA was from the VA they had the records to show that. I called several times and the lady always said that I didn't get anything that only my husband got AA and I did not get anything extra. I would like to know how I can get this corrected so that I can get the back pay that I am owed from July 2010 to the date of my husband's death on January 16, 2018.

Can you clarify your initial post-perhaps I misunderstood your question. I thought your spouse already received a very high level of SMC. I think you are trying to get the dependency allowan
