Veterans’ Disability Benefits
Eligibility for veterans' disability benefits depends on several factors, such as:
- Accurately completing all forms
- A current diagnosis of a disability
Certain conditions must be diagnosed within a specific time frame after service to receive consideration. - A disability that is linked to your military service
This connection could be direct, such as an injury that occurred during service, or indirect, like a condition that worsened because of service. - Honorable discharge or another qualifying discharge
- Service in active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty training
How Long Does It Take for VA Disability Compensation to Be Approved?
The time it takes for the VA to make a decision can vary based on a number of factors, including the complexity of your case and the amount of evidence you provide to support your claim. In some cases, the VA may decide on your claim within a few months. In other cases, it can take much longer.
If the VA approves your claim, you will receive your disability compensation retroactive to the date your disability began. If the VA denies your claim, you have the right to appeal the decision.

Common Mistakes the VA Makes When Rating Veterans
The Department of Veterans Affairs reviews these details of your case. Then, it determines the degree of your disability, also called your “rating.” This rating affects the amount of compensation you can receive. Unfortunately, it often makes mistakes in these evaluations.
Such mistakes can include:
- Missing key symptoms
- Mislabeling medical evidence
- Evaluating secondary conditions
- Ignoring the severity of symptoms
- Applying rating criteria inconsistently
- Underestimating the impact of the disability on the veteran's daily life
Due to these mistakes, veterans may experience delays, resulting in prolonged, unnecessary suffering and financial hardship. Our team is here to help correct these issues and get you the benefits you deserve.
