Partly granted
The Board granted entitlement to nonservice-connected burial benefits for the Veteran, but remanded the issue of a burial plot or interment allowance.
The deciding factor: The Veteran was receiving VA disability compensation at the time of his death and had personal expenses incurred for his burial, meeting the criteria for nonservice-connected burial benefits. The issue of a burial plot or interment allowance is remanded for further consideration in light of this grant.
