The Board has determined that the Veteran's net worth did not exceed the pension limit and he met the criteria for special monthly pension at the aid and attendance rating. Therefore, his claim is granted.
The deciding factor: The Board found that the Veteran's net worth was below the specified limit when his primary residence (rented out) was excluded from assets, and he met the need for aid and attendance criteria.
