The monthly-pay estimate covers the full VA dependent table: a spouse, children under 18, qualifying school children age 18 to under 23, up to two dependent parents, and spouse Aid and Attendance. Method note: your first child under 18 is built into the base rate; each further child under 18 adds the per-child amount, and every qualifying school child adds the school-program amount separately.

How this rating is calculated

Combining 2 values in order of severity, using combined = higher + lower × (100 − higher) ÷ 100 at each step:

60 + 40 × (100 − 60) ÷ 100 = 76.00 → 76

Combined value 76 is converted once to the nearest 10 (values ending in 5 round up) → 80%.
