The Department of Veterans Affairs National Cemetery Administration receives applications and makes Pre-Need burial eligibility determinations on a first in - first out basis.
We are pleased to be providing this service and honored that so that so many view national cemeteries as national shrines commemorating service and sacrifice to our Nation.
Due to the unprecedented number of applications received, we have temporarily shifted our focus to notifying each applicant that we have received their application and communicating with them about expected timelines for completion of our determination. We expect to have this notification out to each applicant shortly.
