49.6 seconds
As you will see in this video, discharge conditions can affect a veterans eligibility for a VA loan. Veterans separated with a dishonorable discharge may not be eligible. If your discharge state is other than honorable or was changed, modified or corrected you may be able to pursue an appeal with the help of the local VA office. Be sure to have copies of your DD214 - Condition of Discharge form and any documentation clarifying conditions or changes in your discharge status. Lenders may not be familiar with the process so getting assistance from the VA is advised.
