Description

Advocates on behalf of New Yorkâ€™s Veterans and their families to ensure they receive benefits granted by law for service in the United States Armed Forces.

Provides free benefits advising. Veterans Benefits Advisors (each Veteran themselves) across the state work to provide Veterans and their families with professional help to resolve social, medical, and economic matters. Advisors assist the claimant â€” whether a Veteran, spouse, child, or parent â€” in completing applications, obtaining necessary documentation, and filing claims for a broad spectrum of federal, State, local, and private Veteransâ€™ benefits. Advisors also assist by responding to follow-up correspondence and appealing unfavorable rulings.

Plans and coordinates outreach services within the community and works closely with the United States Department of Veterans Services (VA) and other state agencies.

Also administers a Blind Annuity program that provides a monthly stipend to visually impaired Veterans and eligible surviving spouses, a Gold Star Parent Annuity that authorizes payment to eligible parents of service members killed in action, and the Veterans Education Bureau, which investigates and certifies postsecondary educational and vocational institutions as providing legitimate and quality education for Veterans seeking to utilize their federal education benefits to attend such facilities.
