A VA benefit that may be worth more

VA clothing allowance

VA may pay $1,053.19 when a device or prescribed skin medicine for a service-connected disability damages clothing. First-time claims and changes to devices or medicines require an application by August 1. Approved recurring awards do not require another annual application when the relevant devices and medicines have not changed.

Apply with VA's online clothing allowance application, or use paper Form 10-8678a (June 2026) and the Claims Intake Center instructions on VA's prosthetics page.

The August 1, 2026 deadline has passed. Follow VA's instructions for the benefit year you are claiming.

Read about eligibility and next steps

DD-214 copies

Request a DD214 from the National Archives online or by mail or fax. Most basic non-archival requests by veterans are free; older archival records can have fees. Use a copy that contains the fields requested by the particular verifier.

For the Exchange review, Member Copy 1 is insufficient. AAFES lists Member Copies 2 through 8 and says not to redact that submission. Follow the secure verifier instructions rather than sending records to a store or to Claim Raven.
