What to know

Some Veterans with severe service connected disabilities may qualify for a TSA PreCheck enrollment fee waiver.

Eligibility and limits

VA healthcare enrollment and specified service connected blindness, paralysis, or limb loss or loss of use requiring VA issued mobility equipment are required. A 100% rating alone does not qualify you. TSA screening rules also apply.
