• The person qualifying for burial benefits is a Veteran who didn't receive a dishonorable discharge, or

• The person qualifying for burial benefits is the spouse or surviving spouse of a Veteran (even if they remarried after the Veteran's death), or
• The person qualifying for burial benefits is the minor child of a Veteran (even if the Veteran died first) or, in some cases, the unmarried adult dependent child of a Veteran
