Veteran's Affairs Disability Payments are paid to veterans of war in the United States. The amount paid depends greatly on a huge number of factors - anything from the degree of their disability, to whether they have any dependants in the household and which branch of the military they fought for. Payments are calculated based on these factors, and are taken from several different insurance policies - health insurance, life insurance, disability income insurance and some more specific policies relating to the person's employment - a veterans affairs mortgage holder will receive cash from a veterans affairs mortgage insurance policy. These payments are all delivered in one cheque every month.
For your missing cheque, there are two avenues that should probably be pursued. The first is theory that it got lost in the post. Even if something is sent via recorded mail, it is possible that it was lost in a sorting house and never delivered. It may have been delivered when you were out, in which case it could have been returned to your local post office. Take some photo identification and proof of your address and check your post office first. They may have records of leaving it with neighbours, if it doesn't turn up to be, it may be temporarily stored at the office. Second, you should contact the Department of Veterans Affairs and make them aware of the fact that your cheque is missing. It may be the case that there has been some change in circumstances and they are yet to notify you, or they may have records of if being sent to you but not successfully delivered, in which instance you should be able to obtain a replacement cheque. In any instance, they should be notified in case someone has stolen your cheque with the intention of cashing it in.
