Veterans Administration

The VA  provides benefits and services for our nation’s veterans.  These include disability, education and training, vocational rehabilitation and employment, home loan guaranty, dependent and survivor benefits, medical treatment, life insurance and burial benefits.  Veterans can apply on-line for benefits and services, as well as check the status of a pending claim or appeal, obtain a copy of a DD 214, create a benefits letter, and access additional VA benefit information via eBenefits at www.ebenefits.va.gov

If the veteran has not enrolled in eBenefits, he/she can register for an account by one of the following options:

  • Log on to the eBenefits website
  • Speak with an eBenefits specialist by calling 1-800-827-1000
