Veterans with accepted conditions that limit their ability to perform household tasks may be eligible for household services support. This can include help with cleaning, laundry, meal preparation, garden maintenance, and other routine household activities.
Household services are available under MRCA and may be available under other Acts. DVA generally considers whether your accepted conditions prevent you from reasonably performing these tasks yourself.
To apply, use form D9216 (Application for Household Services). You will need medical evidence showing how your accepted conditions affect your ability to carry out household tasks.
DVA assesses eligibility based on the nature and severity of your accepted conditions and how they specifically impact your ability to manage household activities. The level of support provided depends on your individual needs assessment.
Actual entitlements depend on individual DVA assessment. Verify this directly with DVA.
