Key figures

  • CFDA 64.104 shows $4.45 billion in USAspending obligations for non-service-connected disability pension.
  • The listing includes 70,490 awards and a recipient count of 0.
  • Awards are coded to 57 states in the USAspending geographic count.

Pension obligations at $4.45 billion

USAspending.gov records $4,453,955,200 in obligations under CFDA 64.104. Seventy thousand four hundred ninety awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $63,200 per award. Pension listings often store many recurring or adjusted payment actions; the average is a ratio across those rows, not a typical monthly check.

The assistance-listing title is PENSION FOR NON-SERVICE-CONNECTED DISABILITY FOR VETERANS. CFDA 64.104 is the identifier. Service-connected compensation, education, and health listings are separate CFDA numbers and are not mixed into the $4.45 billion.

An empty recipient dimension

The extract lists 0 recipients. The 70,490 awards and $4.45 billion remain. Non-service-connected disability pension is typically paid to individual veterans; those individuals do not appear as organizational recipients in this aggregate. Building a “top vendors” chart from 64.104 is not possible from the recipient count in the packet.

The facts that do exist — award volume, dollars, 57-state geographic count — still let a reader size the listing against other assistance CFDAs. They do not identify pensioners by name, and this page does not attempt that.

Seventy thousand award rows

CFDA 64.104 is a high-volume file: 70,490 awards against $4,453,955,200. That density is typical of benefit-payment extracts, where each action or adjustment can land as its own assistance row. Award count is therefore a weak proxy for “number of veterans on pension.” The 70,490 figure is a stored-row count, not a caseload census.

A simple average of about $63,200 per award mixes new awards, recertifications, and modifications. It is not a typical annual pension. The packet does not report claim approval rates, waiting times, or medical ratings.

Fifty-seven states in the source field

Awards are coded to 57 states in the USAspending geographic count. That is a wide coding, consistent with a national pension program, and can include territories and the District of Columbia as the source stored them. The packet does not publish a state-by-state dollar table in these four facts; the program page is the place to inspect geographic breakouts.

Place-of-performance on pension awards may follow the beneficiary’s residence or a default location. Without recipient rows, treat the 57-state count as a coverage flag, not as a ranking of regional offices.

Obligations are not monthly pension checks

The $4.45 billion is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays are payments. A pension award can be obligated while recurring payments continue, or an income test can trigger a modification that moves the stock. This page does not estimate cash paid to date.

Use CFDA 64.104 to answer how large this non-service-connected pension listing is in the assistance file. Do not use it to infer eligibility, claim outcomes, or adequacy of benefits. Those questions are outside the four facts.
