If you have an injury or disease that you think is related to your service, The RSL has trained Entitlement Advisors and/or Advocates that can assist you in your claim for entitlements and on appeal of claims. Our trained welfare officers can assist you to find the right resources to help you.
It does not matter which compensation Act you come under, our Pension Officers and Advocates are trained under the Department of Veterans’ Affairs – National Training and Information Program (“DVA-TIP”) in the Safety Rehabilitation and Compensation Act, the Veterans’ Entitlement Act and the Military Rehabilitation and Compensation Act.
There is a no cost for this service and you don’t have to membership to the RSL – we are here to help anyone that has worn the uniform in service of Australia.
