INSTRUCTIONS FOR VETERANS’ PREFERENCE CLAIMS
VETS/USERRA/VP FORM 1010

 

PLEASE NOTE:

The Electronic 1010 Claim filing system might be inaccessible at times. If that website is unavailable for any reason, you may submit a hard copy Form 1010 (Rev. 05-2025) instead. To do so, please send a hard copy 1010 form (by mail, email, or fax) to:

Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS)
Attention: VETS1010
200 Constitution Ave NW
Room S-1325
Washington, DC 20210
Email: VETS1010@dol.gov
Fax: 404-562-2313

You may submit Form 1010 in either of two ways:

  1. Submitting a signed hard copy of Form 1010. You may download Form 1010 (Rev. 05-2025) to your computer, complete the items on the form that are relevant to your claim, print the form, sign and date the form, and then send it by mail, email, fax, or in-person delivery, to the following VETS office only:

Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS)
Attention: VETS1010
200 Constitution Ave NW
Room S-1325
Washington, DC 20210
Email: VETS1010@dol.gov
Fax: 404-562-2313

The Form 1010 information you enter after download is not being saved or collected from this Internet site; instead, you must print out the completed form and either mail it, or fax it, or deliver it in person, to the VETS address shown above.

  1. Submitting Form 1010 electronically via the Internet. If you prefer to file Form 1010 electronically via the Internet instead of mailing a printed form, you can complete and submit the “On-line” version of Form 1010 at VETS 1010 Form On-line Submission website: https://vets1010.dol.gov/

By law, Veterans' Preference complaints must be received by VETS, in writing or via the VETS 1010 Form Online Submission website, within 60 days of the date of the alleged veterans' preference violation or the complaint will be determined as "not timely", and closed without action.

Please read the Privacy Act statement and certification on page two of Form 1010 before signing and submitting the form.

Specific instructions for completing Form 1010 can be found on VETS Form 1010a (Rev 05-2025). However, if questions arise that are not addressed there, please contact the nearest VETS office for assistance.
