Please note, Post Service Officers serve as a conduit to critical programs and services in the community, but they are not accredited by the Department of Veterans Affairs for the purposes of representing claimants in their benefit claims before VA. PSOs DO NOT hold legal standing to represent claimants in their benefit claims before the Department of Veterans Affairs. This distinction is reserved for individuals accredited by VA through the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the U.S. in accordance with Title 38 U.S.C. ยง 5902 - Recognition of representatives of organizations and the VFW National Veterans Service Policy & Procedure.
Contact your PSO for information on programs and benefits or reach out directly to your local accredited Service Officer or Claim Consultant for assistance with submitting a benefit claim to the VA.
