FOOTNOTES:
- Rates for each school child are shown separately. They are not included with
any other compensation rates. All other entries on this chart reflecting a rate for
children show the rate payable for children under 18 or helpless. To find the amount
payable to a 70% disabled veteran with a spouse and four children, one of whom is over
18 and attending school, take the 70% rate for a veteran with a spouse and 3 children,
$ 1,756.17 , and add the rate for one school child, $194.00. The total amount payable
is $1,950.17.
- Where the veteran has a spouse who is determined to require A/A, add the
figure shown as "additional for A/A spouse" to the amount shown for the proper dependency
code. For example, veteran has A/A spouse and 2 minor children and is 70% disabled. Add
$111.00, additional for A/A spouse, to the rate for a 70% veteran with dependency code
12, $1,696.17. The total amount payable is $1,807.17.
