If you’re interested in speaking with a Compensation Advocate or Wellbeing Support Officer, here is some guidance.

Visit the Advocate Register website.

Scan the QR code below and use the ‘Locate an advocate’ function, which allows you to search by region, type and level of advocate.

Reach out to your local veteran community.

RSL LifeCare advocates can assist veterans and their families anywhere in NSW. Speak to others in your RSL NSW sub-Branch and community to find out who they recommend.

Contact RSL LifeCare Veteran Services.

RSL LifeCare can help collate evidence and supporting documents, complete and lodge paperwork, liaise with the DVA, clarify the process and more.

Note that a specialist advocate might not be in your region.

If you hear of an advocate who has specialist knowledge but they’re not in your region, get in touch. Specialist advice and experience could make a big difference.

If you are still serving, seek advice before transitioning out. Attend seminars and seek resources to support you as you transition.

If you’re transitioning and seeking an advocate, RSL LifeCare can help. advocateregister.org.au rsllifecare.org.au/ veteran-services/ rsllifecare.org.au/ veteran-services/
