Eligibility Definitions Service-connected condition/disability ­ refers to a VA determination that a veteran's illness or injury was incurred or aggravated while on active duty in military service and resulted in some degree of disability. Sponsor ­ refers to the veteran upon whom CHAMPVA eligibility for the applicant is based. Spouse ­ Refers to a wife/husband or widow(er) of an eligible CHAMPVA sponsor - If the spouse remarries prior to age 55, CHAMPVA benefits end on the date of the remarriage. Effective February 4, 2003, if the spouse remarries on or after age 55, CHAMPVA benefits continue. Additionally, in some instances, a remarried surviving spouse whose remarriage is either terminated by death, divorce or annulment is CHAMPVA eligible when supported by a copy of the appropriate documentation (death certificate/divorce decree/annulment certification). Child ­ Includes legitimate, adopted, illegitimate, and stepchildren. To be eligible, the child must be unmarried and: 1) under the age of 18; or 2) who, before reaching age 18, became permanently incapable of self-support as rated by a VA regional office; or 3) who, after reaching age 18 and continuing up to age 23, is enrolled in a full-time course of instruction at an approved educational institution---school certification required (see below). NOTE: Except for stepchildren, the eligibility of children is not affected by divorce or remarriage of the spouse or surviving spouse. School Certification In order to extend CHAMPVA benefits to students age 18 to 23, school certification of full-time enrollment must be submitted by the college, vocational or high school, etc. Student status for CHAMPVA eligibility purposes is established based on school terms for up to one year. For high schools, this period is the normal beginning and ending school year. For colleges and vocational schools full-time enrollment requires a minimum of 12 credit hours per semester or equivalent number of credit hours on any academic calendar year. School certifications must be on school letterhead and include the following: · student's name · student's social security number · exact beginning and ending dates of each semester or enrollment term · number of semester hours or equivalent (high schools excluded) · certification of full time status School generated forms are acceptable as long as they provide the above information. While certifications submitted in a foreign language are acceptable, additional time will be required for translation. Certifications may be submitted by mail to the address on the front or by FAX to 1-303-331-7809. NOTE: It is important to notify the Health Administration Center of any change in student status such as withdrawal or change from full-time to part-time status. School vacation periods, holidays, and summer breaks* are not considered an interruption in full-time attendance and will not create a break in CHAMPVA eligibility. *providing the student attends school on a full-time basis both before and after the summer break
