Who validates veteran status?
Your veteran status is validated with Department of Veterans Affairs. If you believe your Veterans status needs to be updated, please contact Department of Veterans Affairs:
VA.gov Home | Veterans Affairs
800-698-2411
Important Note: SBA utilizes an automated matching service to validate your status as a Veteran. This matching logic leverages the address you provide in the certification application to match against your Residence address located within your http://VA.Gov profile. Please ensure you are using the address that matches this http://VA.Gov Residence address. If SBA fails to match your certification information with VA, your application will be returned for correction.
