You are invited to the Winston-Salem VA Regional Office's annual Veterans Benefits Live event in Wilmington, NC May 28 through 30, 2026

When you pre-register, you're reserving a general admission spot for the day, not a specific appointment time. We’ll see everyone in the order they arrive. There may be a wait, but rest assured you will be seen and receive services. Thank you for your patience and for being part of the event!

While you wait, we encourage you to visit the other vendors and join our hourly classroom sessions to learn more about VA benefits and services.

This is your chance to sit down one-on-one with claims processors who can help you file claims for Veteran and survivor benefits, give updates on pending claims, and answer questions about your prior claims and additional benefits you may be entitled to.

We are happy to announce we will have mobile compensation and pension examiners on site! That means you can get many of your exams during the event without having to make an additional appointment, leading to faster claims decisions and faster delivery of your earned benefits!

Other services include:

. Mobile Vet Center

. Fayetteville VA Coastal Health Care System

. Veteran Readiness and Employment benefits, VA Life Insurance, Home Loan, and Education information

. Homeless, low-income housing, social, and vocational support services

. Vendors and services from community partners, and much more

. Refreshments and lunch will be provided to all Veterans free of charge.
