Pension To Veterans Surviving Spouses And Children via Department of Veterans Affairs

VA Survivor Pension overlapping VA — CFDA 64.105

The pair is Pension To Veterans Surviving Spouses, And Children × Department of Veterans Affairs. $1,719,101,385 is the obligation aggregate for rows that carry both CFDA 64.105 and awarding-agency 036. The join obligation $1,719,101,385 exceeds the CFDA program total of $1,712,110,675 in this extract. This page does not invent a reconciliation; both figures are packet facts for VA Survivor Pension and Department of Veterans Affairs. Correlation is not causation: the join does not prove that Department of Veterans Affairs caused VA Survivor Pension activity, only that USAspending coded the two keys together. It is not a survivor ranking or a named beneficiary list.

SpendingVault indexes the cell from USAspending.gov. The catalog title on the program side is PENSION TO VETERANS SURVIVING SPOUSES, AND CHILDREN. The agency name on the awarding side is Department of Veterans Affairs. Neither label is a contractor, a place of performance, or a fiscal-year stamp — this packet publishes no fiscal year. Cite $1,719,101,385 as obligations on the VA Survivor Pension–VA pair.

CFDA 64.105 as the pension to veterans surviving spouses and children side

CFDA 64.105 is the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance identifier for Pension To Veterans Surviving Spouses, And Children. The program-wide obligation total in this extract is $1,712,110,675. That figure is a program rollup, not a second headline for the Department of Veterans Affairs slice unless the two amounts match. Do not treat $1,712,110,675 as cash Treasury already sent. Payee names, claim numbers, and dependency counts are unpublished on this packet.

Open CFDA 64.105 at /programs/64.105/ for the program hub. That page is not this join: it can include other awarding agencies if the extract lists them, and it is still obligations rather than outlays. This ties page stays on CFDA 64.105 awarded by agency 036 only.

Agency 036, Department of Veterans Affairs

Department of Veterans Affairs is awarding-agency 036 on USAspending assistance rows. The agency hub Department of Veterans Affairs at /agencies/036/ rolls up every program that agency awards in the index, not only VA Survivor Pension. Reading $1,719,101,385 as Department of Veterans Affairs’s entire book would over-read this cell. The join is one CFDA inside one agency, not a department budget justification.

Do not add Federal Election Commission contribution totals to $1,719,101,385. Campaign-finance receipts and USAspending award obligations are separate public-record systems even when a geography or a calendar year happens to overlap. This packet has no FEC facts.

66,186 awards as a CFDA table, not a survivor census

The extract lists 66,186 awards on the VA Survivor Pension × Department of Veterans Affairs table. That is an award-record count, not a census of survivors. Unique recipients are unpublished. Modifications can add rows without naming a new organization. Dividing $1,719,101,385 by 66,186 is not published here as a typical award size, because the packet does not say the rows are comparable.

Payee rankings this survivor-pension–VA join cannot support

An obligation is a legal commitment. An outlay is a payment. $1,719,101,385 is the former. Citing it as cash already cleared on VA Survivor Pension over-reads the field. The join cannot say that Department of Veterans Affairs specialized in VA Survivor Pension because of a policy success metric this packet omits. Keep $1,719,101,385 labeled as Pension To Veterans Surviving Spouses, And Children obligations awarded by Department of Veterans Affairs.
