The Veterans Affairs Administration published Circular 26-22-10 on June 23, 2022 announcing enhancements to accept the United States Space Force as a military branch of service for use in connection with the Veterans Certificate of Eligibility. As a result, lenders should now use Space Force as the identified branch of military service in connection with requests for certificates of eligibility.
DocMagic is updating three VA forms as a result and is adding support for the Space Force as a military branch in our data specifications.
The forms include:
261880.VA – Request for Certificate of Eligibility
268261A.VA – Request for Certificate of Veteran Status
260286.VA – VA Loan Summary Sheet
The data transformation updates required for DocMagic to support "SpaceForce" conveyed as a military branch type by Integration partners will be available in production on August 9, 2022. A separate notification will be sent to partners with the specific information on how to convey that data.
