The $2,000 Direct Military Funeral Includes:
The National Cemetery grave, the opening of the grave, the grave box that goes into the grave and the marker for the grave are all provided by the Veterans Administration in honor of the veteran's loyal and dedicated service. The same free VA Burial Service is also provided to the spouse of the veteran.
.
In addition, a VA Burial Benefits allowance of $300 and a Grave allowance of $300 may be available toward our $2,000 Direct Military Burial. However, it is paid only if the deceased veteran meets one of three conditions. 1) The veteran must die in a VA facility. 2) The veteran must be receiving a pension from the military. 3) The veteran must be receiving disability from the military. If the deceased veteran doesn't meet one of these three conditions then... There is no VA burial allowance.
