According to the Connecticut Office of the Public Records Administrator, veterans can now ‘officially’ file DD 214’s containing electronic certified signatures at their town halls.
Public Memorandum 102, Filing of Military Discharge Documents, was released on Oct. 1.
Prior to this notice, Connecticut required that town halls only accept DD 214s containing physical signatures, or legal notarization.
Veterans who file their DD214’s with their town clerks are eligible to receive decreased property tax rates, depending on town regulations.
Connecticut Public Records Administrator, LeAnn R. Power, stated she is pleased that this legal finding will simplify the military record filing process for veterans.
She encourages anyone with questions to contact her: 860-757-6540.
