RENO - The Nevada Office of Veterans Services (NOVS) Mobile Outreach Vehicle (MOV) will be taking a road trip to Imlay, where veterans and military personnel will be able to meet with a representative of the NOVS to learn about benefits and services they may be eligible for but unaware of.
The MOV was also scheduled to be in Lovelock on Wednesday, Jan. 25, from noon to 6 p.m. in the Pershing County Community Center Parking Lot, 820 6th St.
The MOV will continue on to Imlay on Thursday, Jan. 26, where they will be stationed next to the Imlay Elementary School from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. These will be part of the first trips the new Mobile Veterans Service Officer, Tim Shepard, will be making with the MOV.
"Tim brings a lot of Veterans Administration experience to our staff," says Director of NOVS, Caleb Cage.
Active duty military personnel and their families can meet with NOVS staff that can provide information about available benefits and programs, as well as conduct interviews to determine eligibility and assist with benefits applications.
Veterans can make an appointment to meet with a Veterans Service Officer to discuss their benefits. Walk-in appointments will also be accepted, and the NOVS staff will stay at the location as long as necessary to visit with veterans that come to visit the office.
For more information, or to schedule an advanced appointment, contact Barbara at (775) 321-4880.
Veterans are advised to bring a copy of their DD-214 discharge document and/or current VA claim(s) correspondence. If the claim involves their dependents, veterans should bring marriage and/or birth certificates as well as social security numbers of their dependents.
The Mobile Outreach Office is funded by donations to the Veterans Gift Account that is supported by the Nevada Veterans License Plate Program.
