Welcome to VA Claims Academy's essential guide on crafting a top 1% personal statement AKA Statement in Support of a Claim for your VA disability claim. This video is an indispensable tool for veterans seeking to navigate the complexities of the VA claims process effectively. We delve into the art and science of writing a compelling personal statement that resonates with the VA rater, boosting your chances of a successful claim.
Key Highlights of Our Guide:
Precision in Language: We begin by emphasizing the importance of understanding the VA rating criteria, particularly the impact of specific words like 'or', 'such as', and 'and' in the context of the Virginia rating criteria. These small but crucial details can significantly alter the interpretation of your claim.
Storytelling Mastery: Learn how to internalize and translate your experiences into the language of the VA rating criteria, as outlined in 38 CFR. Find the full 38 CFR here:

Ego Management: We address the crucial aspect of managing both your ego as the claimant and the VA rater's ego. Understanding this dynamic can be pivotal in how your claim is received and assessed.
Concise and Powerful Statements: Discover the art of trimming your personal statement to perfection. Each sentence should be impactful and justify its place in your statement. We guide you on making every word count.
Personalized Statements for Each Condition: We advocate for submitting a distinct, ironclad personal statement for each condition you're claiming. This personalized approach ensures a thorough and clear presentation of each aspect of your claim.
Form 21-4138: Use this form to submit your personal statement (Statement in support of a claim). Download VA Form 21-4138 here:

I think this guy has some of the best explanations regarding VA disability on CZcams
From my experience it’s all about a few crucial words or phrases that win or lose a claim. That’s why claims personnel know these crucial words and have a lot of success!
The (AND) (OR) is very important, this guy is good at explaining this
Have the rater work WITH you, not against you. Not just on claims, but in life. That's how you "sell yourself". Love the video.
This channel was a GODSEND for me! I spent all of 2023 watching your videos, - following all the info step by step - and already got back my initial rating..... At 80%! Plus a year of back pay! 🎉😀😀😀👏🏾 👏🏾 👏🏾 Thank you IMMENSELY for what you guys are doing! I already started working on my Higher Level Reviews and Supplemental claims to reach my goal 100%!
... Again, thanks to THIS CHANNEL! 🙌🏾And for the haters and naysayers out there... Hey, do what works for YOU. This info worked amazingly for ME! And no I'm not paid and no I'm not a 'plant' 😂
yup. I figured this out on my own luckily and began creating similar types of statements. From 2 pages to 2 paragraphs. I still have my statements and help others after I won several MAX ratings that other's said would be TOO hard. You have to Tee it up before swinging, even if it takes a few months.
Can you please help me learn how those statements need to be created? I'm at 90% and need to get to 100%

I just want to say that I really appreciate all of your content. Not sure what all the loan shark BS is about, but your free content here on CZcams has probably helped thousands and thousands of veterans.
Going through BDD now, have my exams the next couple of weeks. Im going to do statements for my big ones: Mental Health, GERD, Headaches.
Thanks again!
Just got hit by the VA with a request for a vba form 21-4138, and I came straight here. Thank you for helping veterans everywhere!
100% true. My and buddy statements are never more than 10 bullets stating impact, sev, freq to work then home life with keywords.
Hi, can you please help me crafting a personal statement for my MH please?
You are such a great speaker & teacher!! The way you present information is fabulous, so simple to understand. Love your videos!
Wow, thank you!
Thank you for acknowledging the vulnerability of writing this stuff down. Wisdom beyond your years.
Jordan, thank you, Bro! You have put together another great video. Showing how to be clear and stay on topic in a peesonal statement, is really important. You have help me trim so much out of my personal statements. If you're like I was, submitting a 2-page personal statement, you're probably putting in too much fluff. I was for sure. Jordan, you helped me put an end to that with your approach to persoanl statement. Be mindful of the ego, that's the way to go. Best wish in the new year. Happy New year
So my DBQ was written as I suffered stressors and injuries leading to severe depression disorder. So basically, according to your analogy I should be writing two lay statements, one explaining the stressors from deployment and the other to injuries that I occurred causing back surgery and the depression and disabilities
Thanks Jordan I appreciate your videos brother they really make sense to me . God bless you always
These videos are fire. Thanks for everything you do.
Spot on!
First off…thank you! I like this template and will def be taking the advice. Second…should/can we also include research articles?
Great video and information. Thanks for sharing and helping Veterans.
For your example of GERD do you need diagnostic tests to file claim?
You have been so helpful.
Thank you so much.
Is it possible for us to write a specific personal statement and have you or your staff review and edit it on an ala carte basis? We can do the heavy lifting and your crack team can focus it to a tiny bullseye!
Thank you again and bless you
Should personal/spouse statements be hand written or typed in a Word document when filed in a supplemental claim?
Can you do a video on smc aide and attendance
Happy new year Jordan,keep up the good work
Happy new year! Cheers
Jordan,
I am working on my Sleep Apnea claim. Does VACA assist w/ the writing of Personal Statements?@vaclaimsacademy
Good shit Jordan👏🏼
Thank you Jordan do you have a personal statement for tinnitus?
Very Nice, much needed information..
Liked 👍, subscribed ✅
TY
Great info, thank you
Do you know if other conditions also qualify for lay statements? Such as urinary frequency, and urgency?
For the veteran (my) statement, which form should I use, cause there are two. 21-10210 or 21-4138? And which should someone else use?
If I already submitted a claim can I add one of these statements and when? At the c&p exam or online? Thanks!!!!
Hi. Yes. You can do a quick upload online. Definitely do take a copy (and the rest of your claim!) to your C&P to offer it to your examiner, as well. You can use either form. The 10210 is more current. I used that but my VSO made me change over to the 4138. So... interchangeable?
Video on Point.. Good Job.
Appreciate you, happy new year
Thanks
Love your channel man. But I have to ask what do you offer with personal statements that ChatGPT can't do?
Respectfully.
One thing could be that ChatGPT doesn’t have feelings so it can’t relate as much. That’s just my guess
This video is so helpful dang
Thank you Chappy, I’m glad to hear it
Can I do a consulting call with you about Supplemental Claims?

Jordan,
Does VACA assist with the writing of personal statements?
Is it a good idea to site evidence from your medical records in your lay statement?
Who do you give a personal statement too? The VA app limits how much you can write in there.
How can I get a copy of personal statement?
When being rated is TBI and PTSD rated the same or are they rated separately.
Hey Jordan, I need your help. I have almost no medical documentation of my service connected ailments since leaving the military due to retired doctors and providers. How do I write a personal statement to secure the best ratings? I have been denied some already due to lack of follow-up visits.
You are likely going to want add current treatment and nexus letters into the mix
Jordan how do I get in contact with VA claim academy is there a phone number?
How do I join you guys?

Hey cheers to you!
So my wife is rated at 80% disability but getting 100% for unemployability. She's getting full medical care and pay (with spouse). So my question is... is she at 100% or does she need to file to upgrade? Who do I contact to find out? Am I eligible for CHAMP-VA?
She should have a counselor she can call at the VA facility she goes to
She is 80%, when you get unemployment they pay you 100%
