What is Service-Disabled Veterans Insurance (S-DVI)?
Service-Disabled Veterans Insurance (S-DVI) is life insurance for Veterans who have received a service-connected disability rating by the Department of Veterans Affairs. The basic S-DVI program, commonly referred to as "RH Insurance", insures eligible Veterans for up to $10,000 of coverage. Veterans who have the basic S-DVI coverage and are totally disabled are eligible to have their premiums waived. If a waiver is granted, totally disabled Veterans may apply for additional coverage of up to $30,000 under the Supplemental S-DVI Program. Premiums for Supplemental S-DVI coverage, however, cannot be waived.
Program Requirements
In order to qualify for S-DVI, you must be a Veteran of the uniformed services who meets the following criteria:
- You were released from active duty under other than dishonorable conditions on or after April 25, 1951; AND
- You were rated for a service-connected disability (even if only 0 percent); AND
- You are in good health except for any service-connected conditions; AND
- You apply within 2 years from the date VA grants your new service-connected disability
