<p>
<strong>
You’ll need this information about the deceased Veteran:
</strong>
</p>
<ul>
<li>Social Security number or VA file number</li>
<li>Date and place of birth</li>
<li>Date and place of death</li>
<li>Military service history</li>
<li>Date of burial</li>
<li>Final resting place</li>
</ul>
<p>
And we’ll ask for your personal information. This includes your
Social Security number, date of birth, mailing address, and contact
information.
</p>
<p>
<strong>
You may also need to provide copies of these documents:
</strong>
</p>
<ul>
<li>
The Veteran’s death certificate including the cause of death
</li>
<li>
An itemized receipt for transportation costs (only if you paid
transportation costs for the Veteran’s remains)
</li>
</ul>
<p>
We also recommend providing a copy of the Veteran’s DD214 or other
separation documents including all their service periods.
</p>
<p>
If you don’t have their DD214 or other separation documents, you can
request these documents now.
<br />
<va-link
href="/records/get-military-service-records/"
text="Learn more about requesting military service records"
/>
</p>
<p>
And if you’re claiming a burial allowance for a service-connected
death, you can submit additional supporting documents (like medical
records).
<br />
<va-link
href="/get-help-from-accredited-representative/"
text="Find out which supporting documents you can submit with your application"
/>
</p>
<p>
<strong>What if I need help with my application?</strong>
</p>
<p>
An accredited representative, like a Veterans Service Organization
(VSO), can help you fill out your application.

We’ll take you through each step of the process. It should take
about 30 minutes.

We’ll contact you by mail if we need more information. Once we
process your application, we’ll mail you a letter with our decision.
