Veterans Administration
The following information, including links and contact information, are resources to help you with questions and concerns you may have regarding veterans affairs. If you cannot find the information you are looking for, or need further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact one of my state offices and a member of my staff will be happy to assist you.
Claims/Appeals
If you have a claim or appeal with the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), my office can check on the status of your case. Please note that my office cannot expedite claims and/or appeals and does not have the ability to influence a case's outcome. My office can help to ensure that the VA gives your case the consideration it deserves.
Note** If a veteran is terminally ill and has medical evidence to support his/her illness, or can demonstrate evidence of economic hardship, such as imminent foreclosure or eviction, the New Hampshire VA may be able to expedite their claim. Please contact my office for assistance with requesting expedited processing.
