1. Does the VA pay for cremation or burial expenses?

The VA does not pay for crematory or burial directly. Any item or service obtained from a funeral home will be at the family's expense. Some veterans’ families may be entitled to a burial allowance, which may cover some of these expenses.

For faster service, apply in person at the Salisbury VA Hospital. Be sure to bring your DD-214.
