Dear
VA Beneficiary,
Did
you know that you may be eligible for an annual clothing allowance if you use a
prosthetic or orthopedic appliance and/or medication for a service
connected skin condition that causes permanent damage to your outer
garments?
If
you’re eligible, and you haven’t yet applied for this year, you need to act
fast! If you have
already submitted your application, then no further action is required on your
part. Your application should be submitted on or before
August 1, 2018. To apply, submit (in person, by mail, or fax) VA Form 10-8678, Application for Annual Clothing
Allowance, to the Prosthetic and Sensory Aids Service at your
local VA medical center.
Additional
information on this benefit is available at https://www.prosthetics.va.gov/psas/Clothing_Allowance.asp.
Thank
you for your service!
Sincerely,
Veterans
Benefits Administration
