Am I eligible for this benefit from VA?
You may be eligible for Individual Unemployability if you meet the requirements listed here.
This must be true:
You can’t hold down a steady job that supports you financially (known as substantially gainful employment) because of your service-connected disability. Odd jobs (marginal employment) don’t count.
And one of these must be true:
You have at least 1 service-connected disability rated at 60% or more disabling, or
You have 2 or more service-connected disabilities, with at least 1 rated at 40% or more disabling and a combined rating of 70% or more
In certain cases—for example, if you need to be in the hospital often—you may qualify at a lower disability rating.
