Each year, DVA promotes the observance of Anzac Day by distributing commemorative posters and educational resources to schools, ex-service organisations, aged-care facilities and community groups.

The Australian Government has announced temporary arrangements for eligible veterans relating to 'telehealth' services and the ordering of PBS and RPBS prescriptions remotely.

The Australian Government has recently announced two economic stimulus packages.

DVA has a Pandemic Business Continuity Plan in place to ensure that critical support and services remain available to the veteran community throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. We are closely monitoring the Government’s response and health advice and will adapt our planning accordingly.

During this extraordinary time with COVID-19, DSH Insurance has put in place mechanisms to help protect you and our wider community.

Open Arms – Veterans & Families Counselling is open for business.

Clients who receive income support payments from DVA will soon benefit from changes to the way financial assets are assessed, thanks to changes to deeming rates.

For the safety of both staff and the veteran community there will be some changes to the provision of face-to-face services at DVA VAN offices.

If you haven’t provided your bank account and address details to DVA, then you may be missing out on entitlements.
