What is a SF-15 document?

The SF-15, also known as the "Application for 10-Point Veteran Preference," is a form used by veterans seeking employment in the U.S. federal government. It is specifically designed to document and verify the veteran's eligibility for a 10-point preference in hiring, which can provide an advantage in the selection process. The form requires supporting documentation, such as discharge papers or medical records, to substantiate the claim for preference. This preference is intended to honor the service of veterans and facilitate their transition into civilian employment.
