By: Identity Team
AUBURN HILLS, Mich., February 8, 2010 — Retired veterans and their families are invited to attend an educational seminar titled “VA Benefits: What you need to know” hosted by wealth advisor George Wells, the president and founder of Legacy of America, Inc., a retirement planning and asset preservation firm based in Auburn Hills.
The seminar will be offered at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, February 25, at Sunrise Assisted Living of Rochester.
Wells created the “VA Benefits: What you need to know” workshop after discovering that many wartime veterans are unaware that they may qualify for the Aid and Attendance benefit, a tax-free pension from the Veterans Administration to help veterans and their surviving spouses cover the costs of in care assisted living facilities. In order to be considered for eligibility, a veteran must have served duty for 90 days or more, at least 1 day in active wartime and be over the age of 65. Veterans with spouses who meet the requirements are entitled to a monthly pension of up to $1,949, single veterans $1,644 and surviving widows of veterans $1,056.
During the presentation, Wells will educate attendees about information regarding the Aid and Attendance benefit and provide helpful advice for veterans and their families to determine eligibility, as well as provide specific directives about how to obtain it. Wells will also discuss little known tax rules for 2010 and how they may impact certain individuals.
“The selfless devotion of veterans to our country has allowed us to experience the great freedom we have today,” said Wells. “To thank them for their dedication, it is my mission ensure that veterans and their families have the necessary guidance and information regarding VA benefits and how to obtain them.”
Through a network of committed professionals, Legacy of America, Inc., provides clients with solutions through education in regards to individual retirement accounts, potentially avoiding probate and estate taxes, assisted care solutions, asset protection, wealth management, and income strategies.
