Federal Military Veteran Benefits
Veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces may be eligible for a broad range of programs and services provided by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. These benefits are legislated in Title 38 of the U.S. Code. View a booklet containing a summary of these benefits: Federal Benefits for Veterans, Dependents and Survivors.
To inquire about federal veterans benefits, call the VA Call Center at 1-888-442-4551 or submit questions online through the VA’s Ask VA (AVA) Site. To access additional information about benefits for veterans, service members and family members, use the VA’s eBenefits website.
State of Wisconsin Military Veteran Benefits
To qualify for most Wisconsin state veterans benefits, programs or services, a veteran must first establish general eligibility. Eligibility criteria, including exceptions to minimum military services requirements, are set in state laws (Wisconsin Statutes, Chapter 45). General eligibility consists of two main requirements: Military service (character, type and duration) and Wisconsin state residency.
Specific programs or benefits may have additional requirements. Check with the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs for details.
Your County Veterans Service Office (CVSO) provides information and assistance in obtaining federal and state veterans benefits, programs and services. Select the state where you live and contact your CVSO for additional assistance.
