The Department of Veterans Affairs' (VA's) new pre-need eligibility determination program allows you to find out in advance if you are eligible for burial in a VA national cemetery. This allows families to plan ahead, and streamlines access to the burial benefits that Veterans have earned through military service for themselves and their eligible family members. For more information, visit ExploreVA to learn how to apply in advance for burial in a VA national cemetery.
