NATIONAL GUARD BUREAU FORMS. An official website of the United States government.

NGB Form 22 will confirm your character of service at the time of your discharge, while the NGB Form 23 will verify your total time as “active duty.”

NGB Form 22 is the National Guard Report of Separation and Record of Service. It's one of the forms that members of the Guard can submit as proof of service and evidence that they've served long enough to qualify for a VA loan for their home.

NGB Form 22 will confirm your character of service at the time of your discharge, while the NGB Form 23 will verify your total time as “active duty.”

The National Guard discharge document is known as NGB-22 and you won't get credit for serving in the Guard without it. For all intents and purposes, it is exactly like the DD214-the NGB-22 shows the nature of your discharge, time served and other critical information a recruiter would need to process your enlistment.

The report of separation form issued in most recent years is the DD Form 214, Certificate of Release or Discharge from Active Duty.

While DD Form 214 is designated for active duty service, NGB Form 22 is meant for those who served in the Army National Guard. The NGB Form 22 is the National Guard equivalent of the DD Form 214 and is proof of service for California Army National Guard service members.

All prior service members and veterans can request copies of their military service records from the National Archives veteran service records office. For any adjustments to your record, you will also have to contact your state office and request adjustment to your record.
