The VeteranPCS Bonus is offered in most states, but due to local regulations, it may not be available in your state. In such states, VeteranPCS may offer a “Relocation Grant” in lieu of the VeteranPCS Bonus if it is not available in your state. You must apply and be approved for the Relocation Grant, and VeteranPCS is under no obligation to approve such application. We will reach out to you once you begin using the service and notify you if the VeteranPCS Bonus is not available in your state and what next steps may be available.

The VeteranPCS Bonus (or Relocation Grant, as applicable) is only available with the purchase and/or sale of your home through the use of a VeteranPCS-introduced real estate agent. Other terms and conditions may apply. This is not a solicitation if you are already represented by a real estate broker. Please contact info@veteranpcs.com for details. Program terms and conditions are subject to change at any time without notice. By using the services offered herein, you represent that you have read, understood, and agree to the Platform Terms of Use.
