Granted
The termination of VA survivor's pension from January 1, 2024 was not proper; entitlement to payment of survivor's pension with special monthly pension is granted.
The deciding factor: The Appellant had a countable income of $0.00 due to unreimbursed medical expenses in excess of the maximum annual pension rate, thus the termination of survivor's pension benefits was not warranted.
