A claims agent is accredited by the VA as an individual, not through an organization. Like a VSO, an agent can’t charge you to prepare or file an initial claim. Unlike a VSO, an agent may charge a fee for work after the VA has decided your claim (38 CFR § 14.636), so ask about fees before you sign VA Form 21-22a.
We list each agent’s city and phone as the VA publishes them. For the full record, or to confirm an agent is still accredited, search the VA’s roster.

Built from VA’s Office of General Counsel accreditation roster and last verified . Representatives change offices more often than offices move, so call ahead to confirm hours and check an individual’s current accreditation before signing a VA Form 21-22.
