Veteran Benefits and Disability

Are you a Veteran that has a Service Connected Disability rating of 40 percent or less? If so, you can submit your Tribal enrollment information to the VA for a co-pay waiver. The waiver covers office visits at the VA and medications. Come to the Veteran & Family Services Office (VFSO) and we will assist with the form.

Your DD214 is one of the most important documents you have for VA healthcare eligibility, disability eligibility and burial honors. Please let your family know where you keep this document! If you don’t have it, please come to our office and we will assist you in ordering another one.

Urban members, if you are interested in filing disability claims or learning more about benefits for you and your family, you may contact our office. We will work electronically to assist you.

If you have never applied or have been denied service connection for disabilities in the past, please come in to speak with us. The rules have changed in the last few years. There is a possibility that you may now be eligible. We can review your case to determine if you will now be eligible for benefits including a monthly check. All VA disability payments are non-taxable and non-reportable. VA disability payments typically range from $175 to $3831 per month.

Surviving Spouses, you may be eligible for a monthly payment of $1,653 per month. Even if you were denied in the past, we can review your case to determine if you are now eligible since the rule have changed. This is a VA benefit payment which is non-taxable and non-reportable.

On March 12, a RoundTable was held for Veterans and their families at the District 3 Service Center. A lot of great information was shared. As you know, changes have started taking place within the VA and there are many more changes to come.

We’d love to hear from you about the benefits you would like more information about. We can discuss disability, surviving spouse, pre-burial on/off the Reservation and Military Honors. 

We will be hosting a Vietnam Veteran’s Day luncheon on March 28, 2025 at the District 3 Service Center from 11am – 1pm. It is open to Vietnam Veteran, their families and supporters.

Vietnam Veteran’s Day is March 29th! Thank you to all of our Vietnam Veterans!
