| Claims for Veterans
Affairs pension benefits are processed the Sarasota County
Veterans Affairs. Pension benefits are payable to wartime
veterans that are unable to work because of a qualifying
disability which need not be service-connected.
Pension is available to veterans,
surviving spouses and children, if the veteran has qualifying
service and there is a financial need. The benefits are based on
a claimant's income and various other criteria.
To find out if you qualify for a
pension benefit, please call 941-861-5000 and ask for the
Veterans Affairs office.
