Official Website

of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

    The .gov means it's official.

    Local, state, and federal government websites often end in .gov. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania government websites and email systems use "pennsylvania.gov" or "pa.gov" at the end of the address. Before sharing sensitive or personal information, make sure you're on an official state website. 

    Help With Records Coordination

    An important step in the transition process from the military to civilian life is remembering to properly record and store paperwork such as the DD214, DD215, or NGB22. Accessing these documents is vital to obtaining well-earned benefits and accessing programs and services.

    Many people are not aware that the Pennsylvania Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA) offers a record request program through which veterans can obtain copies of the above-referenced military documents. Simply reach out to the department by emailing RA-REQ@pa.gov and outline which documents are needed.

    In addition, veterans can obtain more information about this and other DMVA programs by completing the Pennsylvania Veterans Registry form and checking the appropriate boxes.
