SB35

This bill streamlines how veterans obtain copies of their discharge certificates from county registers of deeds by requiring requesters to complete a standardized form that verifies their eligibility rather than relying on informal methods. The bill clarifies who can receive these documents—the veteran themselves, family members, legal representatives, veterans service officers, and authorized organizations—while protecting privacy by limiting access to those with a legitimate need. The Department of Veterans Affairs will now provide the eligibility forms to all county registers of deeds to ensure consistent implementation statewide.
