CalVet’s information contact stays available regardless of your filters. Tell CalVet your county and ask for the current local or regional claims contact. Confirm appointment options directly with that provider.

Before your appointment

Get ready for your appointment

A VSO representative can file your claim and represent you at no cost. You still gather the evidence, and arriving organized helps you get more from the appointment.

What to bring

  • Your DD-214 or other discharge papers
  • Any VA decision letters you have received
  • Medical records you want to discuss, from VA or private doctors
  • A short list of your conditions and your questions

Ask the office what else it needs. Contact the office even if you are unsure which documents you need.

Starting a new claim? Ask about an intent to file

An intent to file (VA Form 21-0966) can hold your potential start date for benefits for up to one year while you gather evidence. Ask the office to submit one at your first contact if you have not filed one already. Check your intent to file deadline with the free calculator.

Prepare with Claim Raven

How Claim Raven works alongside your VSO

Claim Raven is software, not an accredited representative. It does not file claims or represent you. These tools are optional.

Check who will represent you

“VSO” can mean an organization or a service officer. A local post or chapter does not by itself establish accredited claims service.

Ask who will represent you and check that person in VA’s official search.

About this directory

This directory lists 124 service locations and contacts in California, including statewide service contacts. Browse all 58 counties for local contacts, shared county offices or a state referral route. A county guide does not mean a physical office is located there. More offices may be available in your area.

Each listing links to official sources and shows when its website information was checked. We have not confirmed appointments by phone or independently verified every individual’s VA accreditation. Listings are informational and do not imply a partnership or endorsement. You contact each organization directly.
