Attention Veterans: Important Update
Mark your calendars, folks! The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) will be closed tomorrow, Monday, October 13, 2025, in observance of the Columbus Day federal holiday. This means that most VA ambulatory clinics, surgeries, administration offices, and outpatient services will take a short break.
Emergency Services Remain Operational
for the $3,000 Special Allowance
But don’t worry, veterans! If you find yourself in need of urgent care, emergency departments will be available around the clock, ensuring you get the help you deserve no matter the day. While the closure may affect regular operations, it’s good to know that critical services will still be up and running to support our heroes.

Aligning with Federal Holiday Schedules
⏰ Ends Jan 27, 2026 (while supplies last)
This closure aligns with the federal holiday schedule observed by various government offices and services. So, while you sip your coffee and enjoy a day off, just remember that the VA will not be open for regular services on October 13, 2025. If you have any appointments scheduled, be sure to check your notifications or plan accordingly.
Lastly, for more information, feel free to visit the official VA website or keep an eye on local news outlets. Stay informed and enjoy your day!
