How Does your Turnaround Times Estimate Work?

We order our records first-thing in the morning, every morning, Monday through Friday. This means that, in general, your record will be ordered on the day following your request through our website. For example, if you ordered your records through our website at 2:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time on Monday, we would submit your request the following morning, on Tuesday. Likewise, if you order through our website on Friday at 11:00 A.M. Pacific Standard Time, we would submit the request for your records first-thing in the morning on Monday. Since all of our requests are made through government agencies, like the National Archives, Department of the Army etc, our Turnaround Times only count business days–government offices are typically closed on weekends, so no work gets done, and we don’t count those days in our estimates. Some records do take longer than 7 business days–the details are on the Turnaround Times page of our website.

Super great experience with Aardvark. Well worth the money to ensure we were able to get documents in a timely manner. Aardvark went the extra mile when we ran into an issue in securing the documents needed. Their quick and consistent communication was reassuring throughout the process. Highly recommend!

Aardvark saved my brother's life. The VA medical center accepted his damaged DD214 for membership a few years ago. However, when he got out of the VA hospital the state VA home would not accept that same damaged copy. I found Aardvark and they were able to get a complete copy in less than 48 hours. My brother was then able to transfer immediately to a wonderful VA home. Without Aardvark he would have had no where to go and no one to care for him after his hospital stay.The Veteran Service Officer requested an "expedited copy for medical reasons" through the VA system and it has still not arrived in over 6 weeks!Thank you, Aardvark. Excellent service, prompt results and great communication.

I was very impressed with the speed and efficiency of the Aardvark Research Group. I had very limited information to give them in order to obtain the DD214 document and they still were able to get me a copy within a few days. I would recommend them to anyone needing to access VA forms.

Great research company. Very courteous and professional. My DD214 arrived very quickly which assisted me with my schooling. Would highly recommend Aardvark Research.

Incredible experience here! I provided as much info on step-father's service during WW-II. I couldn't find his service number but they found his DD-214 equivalent and sent a certified copy within 48 hours! Needed proof of his service during wartime to apply for his widow's financial assistance when she needs assisted care in the future. Recommend this service! It's well worth the $79 cost as it has prepared us to get financial assistance in the future. VA currently takes 6 to 9 months, which could delay his widow's financial assistance by many months. Be prepared for the future and use this service. Very responsive and professional organization!

I was very pleasantly surprised at the professionalism and incredible communication from Aardvark Research. They responded to my request within hours, and kept me informed of the status of my father's DD214. Highly recommend using them if you need to expedite obtaining a DD214 or other form. Two thumbs up!

Aardvark Research Group was amazing! Their communication was outstanding by phone as well as by text. They answered all of my questions. I requested and received a digital copy of my DD214 in under 24 hours which is exactly what I needed so I could begin a new job next week!! Best money I've spent in a while! The U.S government needs to take some notes from Aardvark about turn around times! Thank You again!

I found Aardvark group online and was in desperate need to get my fathers DD214 so he may be buried at his preferred military cemetery. Aardvark group got me his DD214 in relatively quick time and even without me sending any type of proof of death even though it was requested. I appreciate their help and understanding and would use them again if ever needed

I needed my dd214 and I contacted Susan by texted gave her the information I needed. I was told it would be 10 business days. But they got back to me in less than that. It was the date I gave them but not the date I needed. I reached out to them on Saturday and was told they would look into it. Then flowing Tuesday They sent me the dd214s I needed.Their work ethics, and professionalism are above and beyond most companies I deal with.James

I requested my DD214, and the turn around time said 7-14 business days. I requested it on the 26th and received it on the 31st. Well worth the fee, and fantastic communication. I highly recommend this service for anyone who needs their DD214 quickly.

Not a scam! Aardvark research group provided the best piece of mind I’ve received in a bit. Originally contacted NARA which is backlogged several months. I received my requested documents (DD214) in two days after contacting Aardvark- Amazing! Worth it!

John McGowan

My DD 214 was prepared fifty-five (55) years ago. When the retirement team told me that I needed to have "member 2 or 4 copy" as opposed to copy 1, I was concerned. I read the various advertisements and chose AARDVARK RESEARCH. I was certainly not disappointed. In a mere three (3) days they provided a DD 214 copy 2. Their prompt efficient work is amazing.

After many twists and turns while learning the DD214 was a loss in the "big document fire", Aardvark was able to navigate the process to seamlessly locate and secure the DD-214! The document was needed for a very time sensitive application for the Veterans Administration and without Aardvark's help, mainly Paul, it would have taken me months to obtain on my own. Aardvark delivered! Give them 6 stars!

My family and I can't say enough good things in regards to the prompt replies and all questions answered by emails. We were able to take care of family matters due to their promptness of getting my DD214. Thank you for your help & service, it was worth every dime spent! I highly recommend using their service.Best regards,Kevin B.

I got my DD-214 very fast the website states within 7 days but received mine within 2 days. Would definitely recommend using the service to get the information quickly & the attached letter was certified. Couldn't be more happy with the outcome, thank you very much!!!

This company is awesome! After seeing how long the process would be to get my husband's DD214 I had to search for an alternative. I google searched how to get the document fast and came across something saying you can use a research company. I came across this company who had nothing but positive reviews. After submitting the request the night before they sent me an email that morning. This was yesterday. We have an electronic copy of the DD214 today! They will be mailing out hard copies also. The communication was great all across. I would highly recommend them to anyone asking.

William Henry

Absolutely perfect. Even with the limited information I gave them, they were able to find the paperwork I requested. This company is for real. Fast with super communication. I'd recommend them to anyone in a heart beat.

Kyle Elinski

Absolutely the best money I’ve ever spent. They were extremely prompt and communicative with me. I needed info for my father who passed and I can’t believe the response time. If you are debating whether to use them or not, think no longer and do it! 100% recommend.

Iam so glad I was referred to their website from the National Veterans Foundation. They are great! I needed my DD214 in a hurry. They sure did deliver, I received it next day through email. They are very professional and courteous. Their worth the money!Thank you so very much!👍🙂😁

I am retiring soon, needing certain files of my military separation papers not given at discharge. The official gov't site is super backed up so I thought I would try Aardvark Research. Their fee is much less than I anticipated. Aardvark sent my entire separation files to me the next day-the next day! Best deal ever! If you are needing military files, try Aardvark Research; I doubt you will be disappointed!

Honestly have gone above and beyond for me.After being disrespected by the veterans record center I turned to Aardvark and the turnaround time on necessary records was astounding. Aardvark has treated me honorably and with kindness, like our national records center should be treating all vets.Thank you for your amazing service!

If you are at your wits end trying to find military info for a relative this is who you work with. My aunt sent me to Aardvark and with very little info they found what we needed.There was a fire at the national records facility in the 70’s and of course my dads record were among those lost . That’s why no one could find anything on him in 2022 when he passed on September 7th. Aardvark not only got to the bottom of it they had me a new certificate in about 5 minutes.THANK YOU Aardvark!!!! Now we can get my Dad the service her deserves. ❤️ Beth Murphy

I was in desperate need of my DD214 and ordered the "quick" copy via DD214 Direct. After 7 weeks, and nothing other than "we're trying" I went with Aardvark. A week later, Aardvark delivered my copy. Thank you, they saved my job!

Very quick and very thorough response to my request for my DD214 etc. I would highly recommend this company to all vets!

Phil Summers

So this company is absolutely amazing. I needed my dd214. For some reason when I got out of the airforce i was never given one so for almost 10 years I didn't have it. I was given a recommendation to this cpamy by the national archive itself so that's how I heard about them. I called them on a Tuesday or Wednesday and by that Friday they had retrieved my dd214 for me. Now I can apply for VA benefits and do things I wasn't able to because I didn't have my dd214 all this time I've been out of the military. I know my situation might be different from others but I think if it's your dd214 they do work faster than what they say on the website.

My dad passed in 2013 and his wishes were to be cremated. It's been 9 years and we decided to rest his ashes in a beautiful spot next to his siblings. Dad served in the Navy at the tail end of WW 2. We found that he was eligible for a military marker. We couldn't find his discharge papers and we needed information to complete the application form 40-1330. It's been 75 years and we know dad would have put it in a safe place but where!? Googling we found Aardvark Research Group. The reviews were helpful and we decided to use their expedited service! We received the information today! Grateful and many thanks to Aardvark for your emails and service. We feel for a reasonable price they were much quicker than the application process online with NPRC.

My 90-year-old mother needed my father's military separation paperwork from WWII in order to secure benefits from the VA. It was probable his records were destroyed in the fire at the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) in 1973. I nevertheless applied for his records via NPRC online eight months ago. Then, I happened onto an Internet link to Aardvark Research Group. With Aardvark, I had my father's records in two weeks. And, am I ever happy! Aardvark really came through in something that will provide significant help for my elderly mother. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

The result of using Aardvark Research Group has been a giant load off my shoulders. My 90-year-old mother needed my father's military separation paperwork from WWII in order to secure benefits from the VA. It was probable his records were destroyed in the big fire at the National Personnel Records Center (NPRC) in 1973. I nevertheless applied for his records via NPRC online eight months ago, at the same time my mother applied for the benefits; but have received nothing. I also involved our U.S. senator, who was told several weeks ago by VA that it requested the same paperwork, but, still, nothing. Then, I happened onto an Internet link to Aardvark Research Group. Their business explanation was convincing; and the $80 fee charged by Aardvark is like nothing, if they are successful in securing paperwork that leads to many thousands of dollars in benefits. So, I involved Aardvark in the search. Two weeks later I had my father's records. Oh, man! am I ever happy. Aardvark really came through in something that will provide significant help for my elderly mother. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Even though I had ordered the DD-214 through the Veteran’s Gov’t Records website prior to purchasing the Aardvark expedited service, they somehow worked around it and I had the DD-214 within weeks of contacting AARDVARK. The entire Aardvark team returned every one of my messages on the same day and kept me apprised of the status throughout the search. I couldn’t be happier with their performance and results!A really stellar, 5-star experience with Aardvark!

My father passed away and he was a veteran of the US Navy. When I looked for his DD214 it wasn't where I remember it being and we had to have it for his burial with military honors. Naturally we took the hose apart looking for such a needed document. It's still not been located. Aardvark Research saved the day with expediting my father's DD214 in time for the funeral. I am forever grateful! Aardvark Research Group exceeds expectations.

We recently started the search for my grandfathers DD214 and submitting the application and waiting 3, we got impatient. I saw that this company was recommended on the National Archive page so I felt she using them. Well, they definitely met my expectations! Very responsive, friendly and retrieved the requested document in under 48 hours! I was thoroughly impressed and highly recommend them!

1638320063

Due to the National Madness, it was not easy and it took them some effort but Aardvark came through for me!!!! I was super pleased with their help and rapid communication with me. Not once did it take them more than about 18 hours (at the longest!) to respond and most responses were a LOT faster than that! Pro tip: it may take a couple of days for them to generate the order after you have paid so don't start counting until about 3 or 4 work days after your order. Also: the National Archives are really backlogged, so be patient. Aardvark was awesome to deal with! THANK YOU!!!!!! THANK YOU!!! THANK YOU!!!!!

After months of trying to obtain military records from the government for a friend to no avail. I reached out to Aardvark Reseach Group for help. Within days they were able to communicate that they were processing the request, and a short time after obtained the records. Amazing effort and determination. Highly recommend!

Aardvark has been amazing! I work for a company that deals with Veterans helping them get the Aide and Attendance with the VA, they have been an absolute gem with helping us get DD214's for the senior Veterans that we work with so we are able to help them get their A&A benefits much faster!

My husband and I are very happy with the professional and fast services provided by Aardvark. Our questions/concerns were handled promptly. Also, updates were provided in regards to steps taken by them to obtain the DD-214 document(s) requested. We are grateful they were able to cut through the "red tape" we are so aware of. We highly recommend this business. Thanks again !!
