Visclosky’s Northwest Indiana office provides an array of services for the people of Indiana’s First Congressional District.  He and his staff are available to help cut through red tape and resolve issues people may encounter with federal agencies.  While he cannot require a federal agency to decide matters favorably, he can usually help ensure that requests receive serious consideration.  Here are some of the areas in which he can help:
  • Social Security & Medicare Benefits
  • Veterans’ Benefits & Military Service Problems
  • Federal Student Loans
  • FHA and VA Home Loan Applications
  • Small Business Loan Information
  • Consumer Protection Referrals
  • Disaster Assistance
  • Mail Delivery and Service
  • IRS Problems
  • Federal Grants
  • Immigration, Naturalization, and Citizenship
  • Regulatory Compliance
The Northwest Indiana office also offers American flags, nominates students for the U.S. service academies, and coordinates other constituent relations efforts such as visits to local organizations.

Visclosky sent letters detailing the move to all Northwest Indiana residents with cases pending.  He also sent an e-newsletter to all of his subscribers to inform them of the move.  Those interested may subscribe to his e-newsletter at www.house.gov/visclosky.

“I hope that this move does not inconvenience anybody, and I appreciate their patience and understanding during the transition to my new office,” said Visclosky.
