Denied
The appeal for eligibility for benefits under the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Program of Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers was denied as a matter of law due to the Veteran not having a service-connected disability rated at 70 percent or more and the Veteran's death prior to the application being submitted.
The deciding factor: The decision is based on the requirement that the Veteran must have a single or combined service-connected disability rating of 70 percent or more, which was not met in this case.
