The Sit-Down Together worksheetThe one conversation every veteran and spouse needs to have
Too often, when a veteran passes, the family left behind has no idea what benefits exist, where the DD-214 is, or what the VA already knows. Benefits worth thousands go unclaimed - not because a family did not qualify, but because no one ever wrote it down. The Sit-Down Together worksheet walks you and your spouse (or an adult child) through all of it - your service, your VA status, who to call, where your papers are, and your final wishes.
- Fill it out together in six plain-language steps - no VA jargon, skip anything you are unsure of.
- Keep it private, then share it with the spouse, child, or trusted person of your choosing.
- Print a copy so the people you love are never left guessing.
Free & private - saved to your account and shared only with people you choose.
