Veterans
Service Agency
There are special veterans'
benefits available to people 65 and older who either served 90 days or
more of honorable active wartime service or served less time but were discharged
because of disabilities related to their service. Widows and widowers of
such veterans may also be eligible for benefits regardless of their age.
The Veterans Service Agency handles the processing of claims for compensation,
pension benefits, educational entitlements, property tax exemptions and
burial benefits, and assists with the appeals process. In addition, it
coordinates a volunteer transportation program for veterans to the VA Hospital
in Northport and the V.A. Clinic in Plainview.
