SERVICE OFFICER ASSISTANCE.

 

Service officers can help veterans and family members weed through the paperwork and bureaucracy of government in order to get the benefits and medical care deserved. Veterans don’t have to stand alone with their battle for benefits and medical care. 

 

If you were honorably discharged from active military duty, you may be entitled to VA disability compensation for any medical condition or injury that was incurred in, or aggravated by, your military service. Service officers offers free advice and guidance for veterans who need the services provided by the VA as noted below:

 

  • Documents that may help support a VA disability claim (If possible, have the following ready when you make your call) CLICK HERE for more information.

  • Service officers can assist Veterans with Combat Rated Special Compensation (CRSC) and VA Disability Compensation claims.

  • The VA uses Title 38—Pensions, Bonuses, and Veterans’ Relief as its regulatory entity to validate any service connected injuries or illnesses: PART 4--SCHEDULE FOR RATING DISABILITIES.

 

VA BENEFIT DESCRIPTION.

The VA compensation program provides monthly benefits if you are disabled because of an injury or disease that incurred in or aggravated during your military service and for certain conditions that may develop after your release from active duty.

  1. Benefits are authorized based upon the severity of your claimed disability.
  2. If your service-connected disabilities are evaluated as 30 % or more, you are entitled to additional allowances for your dependents.

DISABILITY COMPENSATION TIME-LINES.

1.     There is no time limit to apply for VA disability compensation. 

2.     You are encouraged to apply within one year of your release from active duty as entitlement is established retroactively to the date of separation if your claim is filed within this period. 

3.     The effective date of eligibility for benefits will be based upon the date of your claim if you apply beyond the one-year period.
