Who can use it?

You should apply for the Income Replacement Benefit if you are the survivor or orphan of a CAF member or Veteran who died prior to age 65 due to an illness or injury related to their service. If they died (before the age of 65) due to an illness or injury that was not related to service you can apply to receive a lump-sum payment. This payment is based on the amount of Income Replacement Benefit the Veteran was receiving. If the Veteran dies on or after the age of 65 and was entitled to IRB at the time of death you can apply to receive a monthly payment which is based on the amount the Veteran was receiving.

Who it is for

Survivor or orphan of a CAF member or Veteran
