The health and safety of the Australian veteran community is a high priority for the Department of Veterans' Affairs.
To assist with ensuring this, members of the veteran community are encouraged to conduct their business over the phone or online through MyService wherever possible.
We will continue to uphold the recommended social distancing measures within our offices and shopfronts to ensure the health and safety of the veteran community and our staff.
Face-to-face services from DVA staff provided at Veteran Access Network offices and shopfronts operate within State and Territory public health orders. Please monitor advice in your area or contact DVA on 1800 VETERAN (1800 838 372) to clarify the opening status of your local office prior to attending.
If you're currently serving, you can book an appointment to meet with one of our Veteran Support Officers on base.
