CalWORKs Eligibility Handbook Form CA 5 - Veterans' Benefit
Verification and Referral 50-24
Effective 05-24-07
50-24 Form CW 5 - Veterans' Benefit Verification and Referral
Applicants and recipients are required to take all action necessary to obtain
unconditionally available income. Income is considered unconditionally available
if the client has only to claim or accept the income. An example of such income is
Veterans' Benefits. Form CW-5, Veterans' Benefits Verification and Referral, is
used to verify veterans' benefits. Its use is mandatory whether or not the veteran
is in the Assistance Unit. However, during the periodic reinvestigation, if the
recipient is receiving or is potentially eligible to receive veterans' benefits, it is
necessary to complete a CW-5 only when circumstances indicate a change in the
recipient's eligibility for the benefits. Spouses may be entitled to veteran's
benefits and referrals should be initiated on their behalf.
I. Types of Veterans' Benefits Available
There are three major types of benefits which are available. These are:
A. Compensation
This is for service-connected disability and there is an additional allowance
for dependents.
