Being married at time of service does not count. If ur divorced you cannot apply for A&A. When she filed for SS did she tell them she had been married to him for 20 yrs. It would effect how much SS she received.
As far as I know, an ex-wife can't get any assistance from the VA. I would call the VA directly or look at your dad's will to see if he provided for her.
