When a Veteran files a clam for VA benefits, there are several administrative actions needed before a decision can be made, such as gathering medical records and military service records. VA is automating many of these administrative tasks, allowing claims processors to focus on more complex and analytical duties. These improvements result in reduced processing times and faster decisions on claims to Veterans and their families.
Now that the national emergency declaration has ended, VA will no longer delay claims due to COVID-19 concerns.
Active-duty service members transitioning out of the military and filing a VA claim for disability benefits will soon find less redundancy in health assessment exams.
Veterans filing disability claims may feel a sense of relief when they submit their claim but still have lingering questions about what comes next in the claims process.
Staff from VA were on hand to support Veterans and their families throughout the 3-day SVA "NatCon" event.
If you’ve filed a disability claim with VA and are waiting for a decision letter, you can access it online once it’s ready. Veterans with a VA.gov sign-in can use this online option to access their disability decisions right when they need them.
