Description

Press release from the Charleston Metro Chamber of Commerce: May 9, 2022 Firstly, military retirees should seek the help of a Veterans Service Officer (VSO) to determine what their federal and state veterans' benefits are and how to file for those benefits. There is a county VSO in every S.C. County. Go to the SC Department of Veterans' Affairs website at https://bit.ly/3HNQLwt to find the contact information for each County Veterans Service Office. Retirees (and all veterans) can also go to the VA's eBenefits gateway at VSO Search-VA/DoD eBenefits (Get help filing your claim or appeal) to find a VA recognized local representative, which includes VSOs, attorneys, or claims agents. This site will allow you to search by state/territory, zip code, or the organization's name. Just open https://bit.ly/35ZKNur in your browser and click on Go To eBenefits, or just go direct to https://www.ebenefits.va.gov/ebenefits/vso-search.
