PSOs DO NOT hold legal standing to represent claimants in their benefit claims before the Department of Veterans Affairs. This distinction is reserved for individuals accredited by VA through the Veterans of Foreign Wars of the U.S. in accordance with Title 38 U.S.C. ยง 5902 - Recognition of representatives of organizations and the VFW National Veterans Service Policy & Procedure.
