Denied
The veteran's daughter sought burial benefits for her father, who died in December 2022. The Board denied the claim because the veteran was not receiving VA compensation or pension benefits at the time of his death and did not meet other criteria for nonservice-connected burial benefits.
The deciding factor: The veteran did not receive VA compensation or pension benefits at the time of his death and did not meet other eligibility criteria for nonservice-connected burial benefits.
