Eligibility for Priority of Service:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Veterans and eligible spouses, including widows and widowers as defined in the statute and regulations, are eligible for priority of service. For the purposes of implementing priority of service, the Final Rule requires that program operators use the broad definition of veteran found in 38 U.S.C. 101(2). Under this definition, the term \u201cveteran\u201d means a person who served at least one day in the active military, naval, or air service, and who was discharged or released under conditions other than dishonorable, as specified in 38 U.S.C. 101(2). Active service includes full-time Federal service in the National Guard or a Reserve component. This definition of \u201cactive service\u201d does not include full-time duty performed strictly for training purposes (i.e., that which often is referred to as \u201cweekend\u201d or \u201cannual\u201d training), nor does it include full-time active duty performed by National Guard personnel who are mobilized by State rather than Federal authorities (State mobilizations usually occur in response to events such as natural disasters).<\/p>\n

\u201cEligible spouse\u201d as defined at section 2(a) of the JVA (38 U.S.C. 4215[a]) means the spouse of any of the following:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. a<\/strong>. Any veteran who died of a service-connected disability;<\/li>\n
  2. b<\/strong>. Any member of the Armed Forces serving on active duty who, at the time of application for the priority, is listed in one or more of the following categories and has been so listed for a total of more than 90 days: i. Missing in action; ii. Captured in line of duty by a hostile force; or iii. Forcibly detained or interned in line of duty by a foreign government or power;<\/li>\n
  3. c<\/strong>. Any veteran who has a total disability resulting from a service-connected disability, as evaluated by the Department of Veterans Affairs; or 3<\/li>\n
  4. d<\/strong>. Any veteran who died while a disability was in existence.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
