I’m assuming the compensation is from the Veterans Benefits Administration for service connected injuries. This compensation does not vary base on household income. I am 60% service connected and household income has never entered into the equation.

Of course, I always recommend talking to a Veteran’s Services Officer, they are the subject matter experts.
