The Veteran's net worth is not excessive for the receipt of NSC pension at the aid and attendance rate, so his appeal based on this issue is granted.
The deciding factor: The Veteran’s net worth was found to be $1,841.00, which does not exceed the maximum annual pension rate (MAPR) specified in VA regulations, thus meeting the criteria for NSC pension with special monthly pension.
