Indiana County Veterans Burial Allowance

Indiana counties may authorize a burial or cremation allowance up to $1,000; the county ordinance sets the actual amount, so $1,000 is not guaranteed. It covers qualifying Veterans or members who died in service, and eligible spouses or surviving spouses, who were Indiana residents at death. An interested person files with the county commissioners where the deceased resided and supplies military, discharge, death and burial or cremation evidence. Only one claim is allowed per deceased person, and statutory discharge exclusions apply.
