Fairfax, Va. – October 07, 2026 -- The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs has launched a pilot program letting Veterans verify their identity on VA.gov through CLEAR, the secure identity company, at no cost and entirely by choice.
GovCIO led the technical integration of CLEAR1 into VA.gov's sign-in system
GovCIO, prime contractor for VA.gov modernization, partnered with CLEAR to embed CLEAR1, CLEAR's identity platform, alongside existing sign-in methods. The integration meets the same security standards VA.gov already requires, without replacing current login options.
