The Veterans Affairs currently has many claims pending for various types of benefits. Because of that, many veterans feel that their case might be overlooked or handled improperly. I am always glad to help in these situations. At my request, the VA will "flag" a particular case and keep me updated throughout the process. In situations of extreme hardship some cases can be expedited. However, it is important to know that I cannot act as the "representative" on a person's VA claim. You may still want an attorney or Veterans Service Representative to help you with this. Many Veteran's organizations, such as your local county Veterans Service Commission, the American Legion, Amvets, DAV, the VFW etc. will provide a Veterans Service Officer to represent and assist you at no charge. My actions will not affect the work done by the person you select as your representative. However, due to the privacy act of 1974, I need your signed written permission if you would like my help with a claim or appeal. Please print out this Authorization Form and fax it to my district office at 614-818-0887, or mail it to my district office at : Congressman Patrick J. Tiberi 3000 Corporate Exchange Drive, Rm 310 Columbus, Ohio 43231 If you have require immediate assistance with a VA problem, call my district office at 614-523-2555.
