Disabled Veterans Over 55 Qualify For YA Pensions Veterans over 55 years o? age who have non-service connected disabilities may now qualify for Veterans Administration pensions under recent regulation changes, the VA reports. VA regulations now specify that a veteran, age 55, with a non-service connected disability rating of 60 percent for one or more disabilities permanent in nature, and who is unemployable, may be considered permanently and totally disabled for VA pen sion purposes. Previously, a dis ability rating of 60 percent for one permanent disability, or a combined rating of 70 percent with one or more ratable at 40 percent, was required. At age 60, veterans may qual ify for VA pensions If they have non-service connected disabiiitie rated 50 percent in degree and are unahle to follow a substan tially gainful occupation because of the disability. At age 63. the disability requirement is only 10 percem.
