Previous Policy

 

MAGI-Based Eligibility Groups

Members whose eligibility is determined for a MAGI-based eligibility group are not required to apply for VA benefits.  This is because the VA benefits do not count as income for the MAGI-based income determination.

Non-MAGI-Based Eligibility Groups 

 

Members whose eligibility is determined for a non-MAGI-based eligibility group are not required to apply for VA benefits.
