Most it pays

$116,084 lifetime

About the amount

FY2026 cap, waivable if the Secretary determines a waiver is necessary for the veteran's rehabilitation program (decided by the VR&E and Loan Guaranty Executive Directors via VA Form 28-0953, within 30 business days, before the rehab plan is signed).

Housing rules

SAH ownership guidelines generally apply and title must be 'good and marketable.' Rules for a construction project on a non-owned or family-owned home aren't spelled out.

How long it takes

SAH agent + VRC in-home evaluation within 30 business days of the plan upload; waiver decision (if needed) within 30 business days.

How to apply

Apply for VR&E (Chapter 31) first; the Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor arranges an in-home Comprehensive Independent Living Assessment, writes VA Form 2105 referral memo, and a Regional Loan Center SAH agent is assigned to build the project.

Does not pay for

Smaller non-construction items are bought separately as VR&E 'home modifications,' not through this grant.
