Regional Office CLOSED to the General Public
In light of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the Department of Veterans Affairs has decided to close its offices to the general public. This step is being taken to ensure the safety of all Veterans and employees to prevent the spread of COVID-19. The VA is actively monitoring COVID-19 and the potential impact on claims and/or appeals processing. We also do not expect any disruption to the issuance of benefit payments. We urge you to handle all claims matters online through eBenefits or va.gov. You may also contact us through our call centers at 1.800.827.1000.
