A prior Title 443 (“Department of Veterans’ Affairs”) exists but was repealed, replaced by Title 400 (law.cornell.edu).
These regulations are the current official framework for veterans programs in Nebraska, but it's best to confirm via the Nebraska Secretary of State or Nebraska Department of Veterans’ Affairs site for the most recent updates .
The Nebraska Department of Veterans’ Affairs also offers statewide services like education aid, legal advocacy, veterans homes, and cemetery dedications—these are guided by but not detailed in NAC Title 400 .
