Of course. After your VA claim exam, we'll review all the evidence in your file, assign your disability rating, and send you a decision notice a letter letting you know your disability rating.
Would you like to know how to get a copy of the final report from your exam?
Yes, that'd be great!
Simply contact your nearest VA regional benefit office, or call us at 800-827-1000 and request an appointment to view your file.
Will do. So, how long will I have to wait for results?
This can vary. You can see the most recent estimate for the average number of days to complete a claim on our page.
Alright. Can you tell me what else happens after filing a claim?
Gladly. I could tell you how we assign severity ratings and how they affect your disability payments.
Well, I was wondering about something else. What happens after I file a disability benefits claim?
After you file your disability benefits claim, we may ask you to have a claim exam also known as a compensation and pension, or C&P, exam.
Yes. I've done that exam, so I guess I have already completed the next step. What exactly are you reviewing after the claim exam?
