Veterans with honorable service can apply for the Veterans Identification Card (VIC) to use as proof of military service. To request a VIC, Veterans should visit vets.gov, click on 'Sign In' in the top right hand corner and establish an ID.me account. Once the Veteran verifies their identity they may request to 'Apply for the Veteran ID Card.' If you already have a photo ID issued by the Department of Defense or a Veterans Health ID, you do not need the new card. For more information, read the VA VAntage Point Blog and listen to this video.
