How Long Does It Take To Get Your VA Disability Rating?

If you are looking to file a VA disability claim or waiting to receive a decision from the VA, you might be wondering, “how long does it take to get your VA disability rating?”

Typically, the VA takes about three to six months to make a decision on your VA disability rating. However, it can take years. The amount of time the VA takes to review your claim depends on:

  • The type of claim you filed 
  • How many disabilities or conditions you claim
  • How complex your disabilities or conditions are 
  • How long it takes the VA to review your medical evidence

What Should I Do While I Wait For My VA Disability Rating?

 

Once the VA makes a decision on your claim, you will receive a notice of your initial rating — This will determine how much compensation you will receive every month. The VA does not always give a disability rating that reflects your condition or what you truly deserve. If you believe you were rated inaccurately, there are steps you can take to get re-evaluated and obtain an increase. 

At Veteran Adviser, we are a team of Veterans committed to helping other fellow Veterans obtain the VA disability benefits they deserve. We know filing for VA benefits can be challenging and confusing, so whether you believe you were not properly rated, struggling with paperwork, or are simply frustrated with the VA — Let us help you get the benefits you deserve! Contact us today!

I can't say how happy I am with their service. Veteran Adviser was always there to answer my questions, did exactly what they said they would, and made the whole process as painless as possible. They also did everything quickly. The VA themselves are a different story, but Veteran advisers were on top of everything the whole way.I would recommend them to any Veteran struggling with their VA compensation. I'd give more stars if I could!

Before I met Richie at veterans advisor I had no idea how to go about talking to the VA and Even how to ask for help. They were able to help me out quickly and responded to questions I had in a time manner. I highly recommend them especially if you feel like giving up on trying to get help.

Veteran Adviser helped me so much with my VA disability. I was rated at 50%, but I needed to be at 100%. Within 10 weeks of filling my increased claim, I was rated at 100%. This has changed my life and I finally have the time to get all of the care that I need. Thank You So Much for taking my case. I have referred two other veterans to Veteran Adviser. They do an amazing job.

The team is a beast! They are all very knowledgeable and efficient. The team members goes above and beyond. They know paperwork and medical verbiage. I felt like I had a VA Compensation person working my case. I stand by the Veteran Adviser Consulting team. Thank you Ritchie and team, for a job well done!

The Team was amazing in helping me increase my rating. They made the difference. I cannot thank them enough for their guidance and care. I feel very fortunate to have found this group who really cares and is helping veterans like myself who has been trying for a long time, but was not successful until I met this amazing group of dedicated people. Thank you all.

I could cry thinking about the day I got my increase to 100% permanent and total. 5+ years of fighting the VA was over within 2 months of contacting VAC. I couldn't believe it. I still cant. It's been life changing and I'm sad I didn't contact VAC sooner as I had the number for nearly a year but I was so broken from the VA process I had little faith. Thank you for everything and I continue to recommend your service to anyone I can.

I personally worked with Eddy and he was extremely helpful and accommodating. Walked me through the process step by step and got me the rating we intended. Initially dealing with the VA was a pain and I wasn’t getting anywhere like tons of vets. Veteran Advisers knows what they’re doing and they’re looking out for your best interest. Cannot speak more highly of them. Thank you eddy and the entire veteran advisers team.

Outstanding service from beginning to end. The team was professional and showed meticulous attention to detail in every step of the process. A very good friend and fellow Vet recommended Veteran Adviser to me and I'm SO glad she did. I've already recommended them to three fellow Vets because I know they'll be in great hands. Look no further!
