I have questions about the VR&E Independent Living track.
Has your service-connected disability limited your ability to do daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and interacting with others, or are you not able to return to work right away?
No.
================
I'm not asking for me. I'm asking for my brother who is a disabled vet. How can he apply for the program?
If your brother has applied and is eligible for the program, we will invite him to an orientation session at his local VA benefit office to help him better understand the program.
================
How do I know if he qualifies?
Does he have a serious employment handicap?
Yes, he does.
Has his disability kept him from returning to work?
Yes, he's no longer able to work, because of his disability.
IS he in need of services to help him live more independently?
No, he lives with me and I take care of him, but he would like to be more independent.
If he is not in need of services to help him live more independently, he does not qualify for this program.
