Spread the word! If when you are asked by a cheerful VA employee "HI, how are you?" Always say "I'm still alive". If you politely respond I'm fine, how are you, the VA employee will write on a form "Veteran reports he is fine now". These people are NOT your friends.
If we all start using those exact words "I'm still alive", as dim witted as they are they'll get it we're wise to their tricks. Tell all of your brothers and sisters it's "I'm still alive".
This happened to me while I was in. I had an MRI reveal I have thinning bone marrow in my left ear canal and slight hearing loss. Instead of asking the hazards of my MOS- loud ass helicopters and fuel pumps- he tricks me into answering the question of whether I drive with my windows down occasionally. At the time I was still stupid enough to believe him, but now I realized how scummy these people are to just blow off something so serious just to not investigate the real cause. Now I'm barely beginning my benefits process and my left ear drum and canal flare up occasionally.
@jacksonrelaxin3425 Sorry to learn that, brother and carry on best as you can. Know that some of us are not only thankful for your service but proud men like you are "still alive"!
@@williambrown3750 thanks man. You too. Thanks for the advice too. I have a problem with telling the truth too much, and now itâs caught up to me lol Iâll be relaying this to my friends who are still in. Iâm sure a lot of them are âfineâ too donât realize how bad itâll be if they say it out loud.
Many have followed this strategy, lots of VA employees lie, and say âthe veteran said they were doing well.â The VA mind-screw is constantly at work, meaning everything depends on WHO you come into contact with as some are decent but far too many are biased hacks. The VSRâs and RVSRâs have too much latitude which invites bias and prejudice! They have seized what little power they act like the dollars they are approving are their own.
The claim denials should be few and far between, the exception in fact. And, the approvals should be the vast majority. Nothing is more infuriating than a POS rater or examiner who never served a day in the military denying any veteran something they earned from being injured at some point during their service.
I learned a long time ago when a person said, "Trust me," don't trust that person!
Bingo

Good Job, Thank You for helping Old Combat Veteran's like me. Leroy Worsley III US ARMY (Desert Storm 1991)
Thanks for calling me back, gotta work on writing my personal statements
This is really upsetting. I feel like I could have gotten higher percentages with what youâve presented here.
Again youâre spot on. This is the reason why my percentages are low.
Thank you Jordan, You are Awesome and a Bulldog!
Great Job Jordan!!!!
Jordan, Thank you for your service and keep putting out great content for us Vets.
Much love Terrance
That's exactly true.
Hey Jordan, Thank you for this! I have been pulling out my hair for someone to explain this!
Keep your hair, brother, pull theirs out! General Patton said, "Nobody ever won a war by dying for his country. He won it by making the other bas-ard die for his."
Good advice Bro!đ
Thank you Todd đ
I just got my rating back for hypertension from agent orange. Service connected 0% compensation. Never set up anything to test my BP. Now what.
My son got out of the Marines in 2019, was working with a VSO prior to getting out , they filed his paperwork with a bunch of claims, was given an appointment in Texas(HOR) but he was living in California when he got out. Unable to make appointment and was denied on all claims. What does he need to do now? He hasn't done anything since then, He's currently working on getting a new diagnosis on his shoulders.
He has to file an appeal:
1) Congress passes a law
2) Veteran files a claim
3) VA denies claim forcing you, dear vet, to file an appeal
4) Wait years for a hearing (going on 3 years now)
5) Your guess is as good as mine.
Good stuff here!!
Thanks Antonio, cheers
Hey, Jordan I just received 90% and a boatload of deferred for my upper body, and they gave me 20% for my back,20% for my left leg, and 20% right leg but deferred my neck, arms, shoulders, and hands are numb, tingling, and stiff. Should I file a supplemental claim for the deferred?
They said mine was no service connection which was B.S. but again Iâm awaiting my check to overturn this with ur course
See you soon Alfred
@@vaclaimsacademy hey JORDAN THANK YOU for always responding. Does your course address denied for no link in service connection? Thatâs my final question. Thank you for helping out us vets
Will going to sick call and or doctors appointment while still in service get me a diagnosis?
It certainly should if the docs do their jobs by annotating things properly
Hey man geat info as always, do you have any tips or focused information for current active duty service but in the plans of ETS? In a year I approach my window to submit my claim (6months prior ETS date) and I developed quite a few issues during my time in service that I've documented
Yes, youâre on fire for finding this information this early. You have infinite flexibility being in service, I would really recommend grabbing access to the Master package at vaclaims-academy.com so you can have access to the personal statements youâll need and know how to put together a killer BDD claim so you do it right the first time. Itâs actually the best way to use the crash course. Cheers
Document and report any issues when out processing. My case is a little different because I was medically discharged but I didnât report anything when out processing (because I was of the impression that I would be permitted to re-enter service once I recovered from my injury) in 2008 and it has come back to haunt me now. Once I realized they werenât going to let me back on active duty I sunk into depression and didnât even try to file for any benefits until this year. Now being so far removed from my time in service Iâm having trouble getting the documentation that I need to get things service connected. I hated going to sick call back then and I really bought into the donât be a âsick call rangerâ mentality, now I see the dudes that reported everything basically breezing through this process and the guys that never reported anything having to fight tooth and nail for 10-20%. Do yourself a favor and report stuff, just my .02Âą
What if the VA holds all your medical records?
I have been diagnosed and been treated for Bilateral plantar fasciitis. I complaint while in the guard but not in active duty. I got denied for plantar fasciitis, can a lay statement help me. Although I did not go to sick call while in active duty, I did complaint with my battle buddies.
Thatâs a tough spot to be in without an LOD. I would probably pivot to claiming whatever is verifiably in your active duty medical treatment records or LOD
Anyone have an example of a personal statement for back pain?
Thatâs the correct question to ask Nick, youâre on the right track
What about if the VA denied me for a back pain claim even though it occurred while in service from 20 years ago. (documented in medical records)The VA response was they did not see any chronic back pain complaints in the last 20 years. What do I do? any help appreciated (yes, I still have back pain)
Hi Joi Last, did you also submit a bulletproof personal statement? If not, thatâs a problem. Additionally it wouldnât hurt to get a recent doctors visit for the sole purpose of providing evidence you back pain is still present. Reattack.
I am 63 and just 2.5 years ago enrolled at the VA. I have constant ringing in the ears and my blood pressure is off the charts. So I am monitoring everyday. with the VA. I have never submitted a claim but considering it . There was an insident that I have never talked about at my 1st duty station. MST, I have never told anybody about it. Do you have any info on a situation like this?
You need to get service connected for the condition caused by the MST, such as PTSD. You need a diagnosis for PTSD, personal statement, buddy letter if possible describing your PTSD symptoms
What about us, Veitnam Era veterans? How do we go about that? đ€
@@vaclaimsacademy What is MST?
This is all new to me. This clinic here in Illinois never heard of a Nexus or Nexus letter & neither of I.
@@ro_boat Military Sexual Trauma
I got denied everything đ and they said they saw everything in the files
What if I submitted lay evidence along with medical evidence and a diagnosis and am still getting denied?
Iâd need to know the specifics to give you a specific answer to that, but generally, read the reason for why there say they denied you. Then from there you can choose to either solve that reason and re-submit, or if itâs a brick wall, attack from a different angle I.e. getting creative with secondary claims
Appeal it
I did provide a personal statement and they still denied. Now what đ€·đ»ââïž
If you feel the evidence you turned in was compelling based on 38CFR, then file for a HLR (higher level review). If that gets denied, time for a pivot in strategy to find an opening
@@vaclaimsacademy well I reread the document and it they did service connect it, but it is evident they didnât read any of the documents I submitted bc they denied it based off ânot often enoughâ for migraines with my DBQ and personal statement both listed way more than whatâs needed for 50. It says I canât file for higher level, but can do supplemental.
@@lifebydottie Ah, in that case I would indeed file a supplemental and include a migraine log on a word document going back 2 months to the best of your ability, showing several debilitating attacks per month.
Take a second glance at your statement to make sure itâs not WORDY and that it clearly and succinctly conveys relevant information based on the feedback youâve gotten
You need a nexus to get service connected disability
You got it
VA doctors are programmed to STOP Veterans from having any proper diagnosis to file a claim and these VA doctors are lazy.
This Guy is So On Point! Thank You!đșđžđ„đ«Ąđ„
