CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — U.S. Rep. Chris Pappas of New Hampshire is part of a group of lawmakers that introduced a bipartisan bill to help National Guard and Reserve members receive their benefits upon retirement or completion of service.
A particular form is frequently required by the Department of Veterans Affairs, other benefits organizations and private sector institutions to certify qualifications for benefits after completion of service. Pappas and other sponsors of the bill said it can be difficult and confusing for both the VA and servicemembers to prove all service periods because of the way the form is drafted.
