5.0 out of 5 stars Much needed guide, December 7, 2009
This review is from: Checks for Vets A Guidebook to Help Wartime Veterans and Their Surviving Spouses Receive VA Pensions (Paperback)
This is a very clearly organized and informative guide for veterans and their families to use to obtain benefits that are little known and understood. It provides a practical, step by step tutorial, including what a properly filled out form looks like to guide someone through the process. It also provides information for different levels of benefits. As a Director of Admissions at Passavant Retirement Community in Zelienople, PA, I have witnessed families become overwhelmed by the process and the volume of information they need to provide - this book is a life raft to them in their time of need. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thumbs Up for Checks for Vets!!, February 8, 2010
This review is from: Checks for Vets A Guidebook to Help Wartime Veterans and Their Surviving Spouses Receive VA Pensions (Paperback)
Joe's book has step-by-step guidelines to simplify a complicated process to obtain a VA pension. The sample completed forms and corresponding instructions are very helpful.
The book also features a national directory of veteran service officers who can file the claim for the pension. If you're a wartime service veteran
or a surviving spouse who needs assisted living or home care, or would like to plan for it, this is your book.
