yes that is correct. your social security income will be included but your veteran's widow benefits will not. for more information on what is counted as income under the affordable care act take a look at this grid created by the uc berkeley labor center: <link>
do i count in my widow veterans benefits as well as my widow benefits from social security for healthcare or medicaid? . i receive widow social security benefits and i also receive widow veteran benefits monthly. when i applied online for healthcare i was told by the new york exchange i had to only show the social security widow benefits and not the veterans widow benefits. is this right?
