How to request a Certificate of
Eligibility for VA Home Loan
Benefits
To request a Certificate of
Eligibility for VA home loan
benefits, you must complete
VA Form 26-1880 and submit it to
our VA Eligibility Center along with
acceptable proof of service as
described on the instruction page of
the form.
It's also possible to obtain a
Certificate of Eligibility from your
lender. Most lenders have access to
the ACE (Automated Certificate of
Eligibility) system. This Internet
based application can establish
eligibility and issue an online
Certificate of Eligibility in a
matter of seconds. Not all cases
can be processed through ACE - only
those for which VA has sufficient
data in our records. However,
veterans are encouraged to ask their
lenders about this method of
obtaining a certificate.
