A letter explains survivors may receive the difference between lump sums already paid and larger eligible amounts under the new amendment if they apply at the administration. To qualify, a veteran must be discharged under non dishonorable conditions within four years after WWII, have 90 days active duty between 1940 and war end or be discharged due to service related disability, and die within three years of discharge. Survivors meeting these rules become potential beneficiaries of old age and survivors insurance.
