[quote author=Danjanou ]VSO Veteran Service Officer, some branhes have a seperate Seniors Service Officer. As noted they're at both Branch and Provincial level and in my experience better to start at the Bracnh level for two reason, one odds are he's closer to get to and most likely he's a retired cranky old guy often a vet who has the time to listen to you and push the paper up and the inclination to do more so than the paid Provincial guy who will probably tell you to start at the branch level first anyway.[/quote]
I had dealings with the PHQ VSO in Dartmouth NS and from my experience he was outstanding. Up front, honest and offered what comments he is allowed to offer based on his role.
Yes, he suggested I should be patient and that it could take around 5 months to hear back. But then these delays are with VAC and
not his office, so knowing this, I’m OK with hearing that. I did not think this would be a fast process.
When I informed my JPSU I have been muddling along for two years without speaking to them or applying to
VAC through the RCL VSO he nearly jumped across the desk at me for failing to engage something so simple. If only I had of known sooner.
