The Military Service checklist in FamiliaLista: DD-214 marked “I don’t have it yet”, with how to get it and the county Veterans Service Office

Veterans & military families

Military Service

Active duty, Guard, Reserve, retired or veteran. One switch in your profile adds a checklist of what your family needs to claim your benefits.

  1. 18 items, one place

    DD-214, VA rating letter, SGLI or VGLI, Survivor Benefit Plan, burial wishes and your pre-need letter, and who your family calls first.

  2. Don’t have it yet?

    Tap “I don’t have it yet” and it shows how to get it, with tap-to-call numbers and official links.

  3. Your local office

    In Texas, you see your county Veterans Service Office; in any other state, the VA’s official office finder. They help with the DD-214, VA claims and burial benefits. State benefits vary from state to state.

The First Responder checklist in FamiliaLista: department, pension and life insurance, 6 of 15 ready

Police, fire & EMS

First Responder

Police, fire, EMS, corrections or dispatch. One switch in your profile adds a checklist of what your family needs to claim your pension and benefits.

  1. 15 items, one place

    Your service dates and exposure reports, your pension and beneficiaries, department and association benefits, state line-of-duty benefits (in Texas, Chapter 615), the federal PSOB benefit, honor-guard wishes, and who your family calls first.

  2. Who can help

    Each item says who handles it, with tap-to-call numbers and a free guide.

  3. Honors, your way

    Department honors, color guard, bagpipes, a last call, or a quiet family service.

Add a photo of each paper, or just say where it is. Your service papers get their own section in the plan your family receives, delivered to the people you chose.

For Veterans Service Offices and departments
