If you have dependents, an additional allowance may be added to your disability compensation if your combined disability is rated ____ percent or greater.

Dependents allowances are extra monthly payments added to VA disability compensation for veterans who have dependents. These add-ons begin only when the veteran’s overall combined disability rating reaches at least 30%. The exact amount depends on the rating level and the number of dependents, but the key point is that 30% or greater is the threshold at which the dependent allowance can start. If there are no dependents, or if the combined rating is below 30%, this add-on generally doesn’t apply.
