Service period matters
Where a program depends on service or discharge, MDN should evaluate the relevant period rather than a single global service field.
BENEFITS & SERVICES REGISTRY — FOUNDING PUBLIC BETA
Browse what may be relevant. Verify what actually applies.
The registry is a map of programs and the factors that can affect eligibility. It does not issue a “you qualify” verdict. Service periods, branch/component history, broken service, discharge characterization, family status, disability status, and other facts can change the answer.
Privacy note: Search and filters run in your browser. They do not ask for case identifiers, and your filter choices are not sent to analytics.
Before you rely on one service record
If you have prior service, changed branches or components, had a break in service, served under another legal name, or have conflicting/missing records, use the Service History & Record Continuity check first.

Find programs by the problem you are trying to solve.
The registry starts with high-value federal and DoD programs and will expand during public beta.

CURRENT REGISTRY
Programs and factors to verify
Each card shows the responsible agency, major eligibility dimensions, time sensitivity, and the official source.
HOW MDN USES THE REGISTRY
No hidden eligibility assumptions.
Unknown stays unknown
If the user does not know a service date, characterization, status, or record fact, MDN should not silently infer it.
Official source controls
The registry helps identify what to verify. The responsible agency or governing authority makes the actual eligibility decision.
