Double Dipping?

Question:

Jim, if your child is receiving chapter 35 benefits and still lives at home can I receive Dependents pay? I see if they leave home you can not, but can’t find anything about if they are still living at home. Thank you.

 

Jim's Reply:

No. Concurrent receipt of those benefits is seen as double dipping.
 

However, like everything else in our VA benefits, there are exceptions to every rule. Please click here to explore the intricacies of this benefit. Good luck sir.
