Veterans are eligible for a wide range of benefits, including healthcare, education and training assistance, disability compensation, pension, home loans, life insurance, and burial benefits.

Veterans can access healthcare benefits through the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) healthcare system. They can apply for enrollment and receive comprehensive medical services, including preventive care, primary care, specialty care, mental health services, and more.

Veterans can take advantage of various education and training benefits, such as the Post-9/11 GI Bill, the Montgomery GI Bill, and the Vocational Rehabilitation and Employment program. These benefits can cover tuition, fees, housing allowances, and provide support for pursuing higher education or vocational training.

Disability compensation is a tax-free monetary benefit provided to veterans with service-connected disabilities. The amount of compensation depends on the severity of the disability, and it is intended to compensate veterans for the impact their service-connected injuries or illnesses have on their daily lives.

The VA pension program provides monthly payments to eligible wartime veterans who have limited or no income and are over the age of 65, or have a permanent and total non-service-connected disability. The pension amount is based on income and other factors, and it helps veterans meet their basic needs.

Veterans can access home loan benefits through the VA Home Loan Guaranty Program. This program offers loan guarantees that enable veterans to obtain favorable financing terms for purchasing, building, or repairing homes. It helps veterans achieve homeownership with competitive interest rates and flexible payment options.

Veterans have access to several life insurance options, including Servicemembers’ Group Life Insurance (SGLI), Veterans’ Group Life Insurance (VGLI), and Family Servicemembers’ Group Life Insurance (FSGLI). These programs provide affordable life insurance coverage to protect veterans and their families.

The VA provides burial benefits to honorably discharged veterans. These benefits may include burial in a national cemetery, a headstone or marker, a burial flag, and a Presidential Memorial Certificate. The VA also offers financial assistance for burial expenses in certain cases.
