VA Releases 2009 Veterans Benefits Booklet

By , About.com GuideApril 24, 2008

Follow me on:

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) now offers handy online access to the 2009 edition of the booklet "Federal Benefits for Veterans and Dependents."

The free booklet describes benefits provided by VA along with resources to help veterans access those benefits. It also includes information on programs and services for veterans provided by other federal agencies.

Veterans of the United States armed forces may be eligible for a broad range of programs and services provided by the federal Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). Eligibility for most VA benefits is based upon discharge from active military service under other than dishonorable conditions. The booklet "Federal Benefits for Veterans and Dependents" contains complete details on conditions of eligibility.

I tried the link to get online copy of book about veteran benefits. It is not available. I’m interested particularly about funeral benefits, related to our nonprofit Funeral Consumers Alliance of Oregon, offering free information to help people plan and shop for funerals…cremation, green burial, memorials, etc.
