DIC benefit for Surviving Spouse

Jim: I am 100% service connected disabled. If I live 10 years then die of natural causes, will my wife recieve a monthy check of any kind?

Jim's Reply: Yes, if you die of any cause after 10 uninterrupted years of a 100% P & T benefit, your surviving dependent will be eligible for the DIC benefit. I post more detailed information here: https://www.vawatchdog.org/dic---survivor-benefits.html. Also, StatesideLegal.org offers information here.
