You can have a protective payee take over managing your money if you or a family member cannot manage financial affairs. The programme takes custody of the finances and makes sure basic needs such as housing, food, clothing and medical care are paid for. It can act under a VA fiduciary appointment or as a Social Security Administration representative payee.
Call 800-562-2308 or 360-485-1807 to ask about protective payee services.
Documentation of the veteran’s inability to manage their financial affairs, their VA and Social Security benefit information, and proof of your relationship if you are applying on someone’s behalf.
