Veterans can now apply for benefits and health care online with DVA. The two new systems will allow veterans quick, easy and secure access to apply for compensation, pension, rehabilitation benefits and health care.
To apply for health care, fill out and submit an internet-based 10-10 EZ application. The 10-10 EZ is automatically e-mailed to the VA health care facility selected by the veteran. VA employees register the data, print the form and mail it back to the veteran for signature. Veterans can also print out the completed form and mail it to the VA health care facility themselves.
“Veterans On Line Applications “ (VONAPP) is designed for veterans to apply for compensation, pension, and vocational rehabilitation benefits through the Internet. Completed applications are sent electronically to the veteran’s local VA office. Processing begins right away and veterans receive a response letting them know the status of their applications.
These forms are individually encrypted to ensure the privacy of veterans’ personal data.
Veterans can access these forms by going to http://www.va.gov/forms or http://vabenefits.vba.va.gov.
