Is an ex wife of a Veteran (deceased) entitled to any benefits?

He was a Vietnam Vet. They were married 40+yrs. Neither one ever remarried.

Adding: Google VA facilities in or near Cochranville, PA, then contact the Eligibility Office for assistance.

The American Legion helped us and did so in a very quick manner. I would enlist their's or the VFW's assistance to help; they know their way around the VA more than I ever could.

What I've learned in the last few months is that the Eligibility Department of our local VA offers great help; it's staffed by very knowledgeable people.

It is very likely and will depend on her income. She will need to apply with the VA. The application is a bit of a pain and can take a long time to be cleared, so you have to have patience. You won't need to pay to apply, but sometimes there are lawyers who will help you through the process for a fee. Talk to someone at the VA to see what she needs to do.
