I'm a 67 year old, honorably discharged veteran (active duty 1966-1969 inactive reserve 1970-1972). I have numerous medical issues, non service related, and was on disability until age 65. My wife is 57, dissabled W/Multiple Sclorsis. We are Low Income renters living in Section 8 housing. Social Security is are only source of income.
There are a lot of factors and criteria in getting VA assistance for either you or both of you; I spent considerable time working out what was necessary but in the long run found it easier to let the pros handle the application. And they did, and quickly.
Good luck.
