DVA

- Household Services and Veterans' Home Care are separate pathways — we confirm which applies first.
- We need your approval details before invoicing.
- Approved Household Services are invoiced through DVA's provider upload.

Household help can be approved on an accepted WorkSafe claim. Silv's is an approved WorkSafe provider for household services.
- Your agent must approve household help first — it can't be booked and invoiced afterwards.
- WorkSafe sets the frequency; standard guidance often contemplates 1–2 hours of cleaning a fortnight.
- In-home clothes care can be included; off-site pickup laundry needs written agent approval.

- We need your TAC claim number and a copy of the approval before the first clean.
- We only invoice the approved scope, at the current TAC fee schedule.
- Laundry on a TAC invoice needs separate written TAC approval.
