Bang on
And when something is "$0 times cheaper" than the competition, you usually are not getting the same thing.
@@vaclaimsacademy My husband died 2 months ago. He was only 20% of
His compensation, with case been pending for more than 5 yrs now. Can I pick up his case to continue?
Love the fact you shouted out combat Craig. Your channel and his are the ones I watch the most.
His paid course and free content are pretty top tier. Spoke to him on the phone a few years back and an all around stand up guy too. Cheers!
Combat Craig helped me greatly. This channel is awesome also
If they want to eliminate "claim sharks" then they and ALL VSOs need to step up. If they want only VSOs to help veterans, then they should ONLY allow them to help. However, they should then also have many hundreds or even thousands more VSOs who are better educated and helpful.
Sort of along the same lines, when I got out, I used all the free services to write my resume and it wasn't great and got me a middling job. I hired a resume writer, who for a few hundred bucks helped me double my salary. Point is, finding people who know what they are doing may not be cheap, but they can certainly be worth it.
any veteran can turn in a claim directly through the VA website. The VA process doesn't know if someone helped the veteran, other than people who sign the DBQ
Facts!!!!!!!!!!
It's illegal to dictate who you can and cannot use as a representative.
@oldArmyVet agreed 100%. How i interpreted the letter was that they ONLY want VSO and their reps to help. If that's what they want then they should step up and be well... better VSOs
The VSO's have become lazy, and they'll do the basic requirements. Many aren't even knowledgeable
The VA has there whole team working against the veteran but it's bad when we want to have our own team of people.
Bit of a cynical way to put it, but I definitely can’t say you’re wrong my friend. Cheers
@@vaclaimsacademy Cynical or accurate? Truth hurts and all of this is really symptomatic of the fact that the VBA is doing everything they can against veterans, period.
It ain't fun when the rabbit got the gun...
100% true. They are rigging the system so they can control every aspect of the claim process. It's clear in their recent changes to criteria for ratings its changed to make things so hard to get rated properly.
Why do we as Veterans have to fight for what is due us?
As illegals cross into the Country and get free sh!t!!!
100% we fight for whats due. We paid the price. Yet those illegals crossing the boarder... gets food andna handout.
ask the VA, saw many vets getit...saw many vets not getit....VA makes it so tough.

Money simply money
The Veterans Affairs received my va claim on 07-12-23 . My claim is in the Preparation for Decision phase. Everyone get your claims in before January 2024 because the criteria will be a lot more difficult then it is now to file certain types of va claims. Please be safe and stay healthy/hydrated as well!!! I wish everyone the best in life 💯
Was yours standard or bdd
@@Batysimang7 standard . I filed my va claims on July 12th 2023 and received my claims process benefits increase from 20% to 80% when I checked my online E- benefits on 11-17-23. A few days later I received my retro pay and then the next week I received my letters from the VA. I still have one more exam to complete which is for mental health and scheduled for 12/28/23 so my rating could increase depending on the outcome of my mental health claim/exam. It is a secondary claim.
First time coming across your channel and your transparency is something remarkable. I cherish people who are brutally honest like you and I feel on a daily basis it’s a trait that has perished. Much love and respect brother.
Love you Jordan for telling the whole truth about facts - vso and lawyers also work for the VA in certain areas of your claim/claims - your company is the cheapest and it is the BEST COMPANY ON THE NET !!! KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO SIR !!!
GTO in the house! Cheers to you my friend it is great to see you as always. I hope you’re in good health!
Jordan i had no choice but to appeal to the BVA because there examiners raters dro denied my claims when i had a diagnosis In-service conditions continued thru-out service i got out got treatments from the VA and my private doctors also go nexus statements from my private doctors still got denied Jordan back in 2011-2012 - i hired a law group out of Rhode Island i then fired them for incompetency they got over $30,000 of my retro backpay and none of there evidence was even used just my evidence they got paid for writing useless letters to the claim office and housing my claim folder in there office - i got robbed but you live and learn - i will be doin a video on the law group real soon i got all the receipts to back up my issues with Them - Your videos gets vets approved without spending any money on Your website - the cost of your program is dirt cheap needs to be $1000 or more but you are a great dude and honest !!!
The law firm I hired to dispute my claim denial charges percentage of back pay. I hired them from the list of “authorized” firms provided by the VA. Three years later, still awaiting a hearing date.
VSO is the reason I am only at 50%. It is ridiculous.
Too many veterans are getting VA compensation because folks are EDUCATED on how the system works. Congress is talking about “fiscal responsibility” now. Once players know the rules to the game being played, there’s a level playing field. Yes, these are “proposals” but best believe, changes are coming.
One thing the government Hates, equal playing fields. They can give our money to other countries and refugees but God forbid they help veterans
Too many are getting the compensation they deserve?
@@InitialFailure is that a rhetorical question or are you being obtuse to prove a point?
@andrewlockwood5373 I'm genuinely asking.
Do you believe too many are getting the compensation they deserve?
@@InitialFailure not enough people. The point I was making is for every action, there’s an equal and opposite reaction. VA is changing to combat, in my opinion, more veterans getting compensation. I’m surprised that based off my initial response, you thinking something different. Or am I wrong in that assumption?
Thanks Jordan for the support. You'll help us and we trust you you"ll prepare us still for this tough 2024 changes. I have a feeling they're scared your doing a great job teaching us, and looking for a way to scared us from buying your product. I was shock some actual Claim Shark were not listed, and had your company instead.
The VA just awarded a company I used to work for with an “unrestricted” contract as part of the overall $60.7 billion VA T4NG2 program. Mind-blowing.
Woah, the ink on those bills is probably still wet 😂
Yep! 😂
The two VSO's I've dealt with were ZERO help!
I met with one. Total ahole. Fed me a line of BS. I walked out
Jordan love your information and don’t let them get you down. Please keep doing the great job you are doing. Thank you sir for all this information you have provided for me and countless others👍👏
I went in to see a VSO to make several claims a few weeks ago. I felt like I was a burden and that I shouldn't be making these claims. I left only making 1 claim. I'm doing my homework and will do the rest with someone else.
When you do them... do 1-2 claims at a time. It goes faster. Amd fight for highest claims first.
Been watching just subscribed.. Says a lot you went straight at the issues.. Keep it rolling
VSO are free, and you get what you pay for.
You win top comment today 🥇 😂
Facts!
Exactly!!!
VFW VSO are awesome!
Agreed! The DAV supervisor rudely told me "You ain't gonna see a dime." when I wanted to file a claim for non-combat PTSD. I find their attitudes towards women veterans to be sub-par yet they jump head over heels for helping male combat veterans.
$325 B for the VA and $480 B for the illegal immigrants....
Vets were kicked out of a facility in upstate NY in order to bring in illegals. Federal immigration law explicitly prohibits the unchecked inflow of illegals. It is an impeachable offense to allow this.
113 Billion to Ukraine. The Americans Last program continues.....
Its an Outrage!
Votes are more important to the Democrats.

I respect your integrity. I luv your channel. Keep up the great work 👍
Good info and definantly good looking out ..Now on another note ' bro you killing me with the jagged dorsal shark fin...😁
have watched your vids- and others-
i see you as a straight shooter and like your presentations.
i have learned beneficial things from you.
don"t let the grunions get you down.
You are giving excellent deep information for our benefits as vets. I used VSO before, but the job was lousy. I signed up with a new company for vets before I came across you on CZcams. I am getting the Gist of information from you to prepare for C and P exams. Thank you. I appreciate you ❤
I almost didn’t get my 50% sleep apnea claim because of the miscommunication between VBA and VHA. The diagnostic notes from my C&P exam weren’t sent to the VHA only the dbq and the VHA was skeptical prescribing me a cpap because the only thing noted was I had 15 apneas in an hour. But yea let’s put all of our trust in the VA
You are absolutely right my brother. The VA uses a third-party examiner QTC which calls Veterans about 37 times to show up to a CMP exam in which they charge allegedly, $2500-$5000 per exam, of course I am not sure of the right figure. Moreover, people have the right to spend the money however, and it would be worth it even if they are overcharge they don’t wanna deal with the Bureaucracy and red tape that the government provided. Hell, they created this problem by denying benefits for the most trivial things like having information on the wrong form. Overly developing clings by scheduling compensation and pension examination for no reason. It’s ridiculous keep doing what you’re doing brother!
Woah I had no clue about that price tag! It suspiciously seems like money is fine flowing everywhere EXCEPT giving vets a real simple playbook for winning their claim and moving on with their lives.
Cheers brother
Brother make that video motivate you more to keep doing what you're doing and that is advocating for us vets! If they are bitching it's because you are doing something right and, yes, no BS, you hit it in the bullseye..."people have the right to spend the money however, and it would be worth it even if they are overcharge, they don’t wanna deal with the Bureaucracy and red tape that the government provided" I don't getting shafted and denied by the red tape. You are the Mongoose to the VA poisonous Cobra snake!!
Not true.I had a C&P exam by opthalmologist which took 1 1/2 hours a the bill to VA was $ 725.00. C&P examiners are Nurse Practitioner who gets a less
Sounds like a defamation lawsuit against the VA should be initiated. Oh, that qualified immunity thing and also the fact that, except for a few exceptions, the Fed Government has to agree to let you sue them. Good luck!
Jordan (veteran brother) thank you for educating me in filing my claims the right way, i was injured in the service and i pay everyday with the pain im on i suffer from my injuries and i have had over 20 spine surgeries and im on Fentanyl, all from my service to my country, well im going to be all done filing this month in 2023, thanks to some of your help, but mostly has been coming from my Dr working with me for over 9 months. Im a grand master membership and i need the extra help with my personal statements, because of my pain from my services injuries, you helped me get it in my own story in my words. They treat us like shit! Im still waiting on my C file, i was in the hospital so many times, every time i call the va 800, they say they are putting it on a disk, for 8 months? I dont care how hard it gets! My Shit is Tight and Srt! They have no where to go, but give my 100%! 😊 thanks Jordan i love the shark jack! I really feel you need a Halo around you head, for helping Vets keep our stuff straight!
Same thing happened to me! Never received my C-file and the VA 800 number people kept promising it would be immediately corrected. That was LAST YEAR. Ridiculous
WOW, Muchacho, you explained it better than ALL Economy college professors I've seen
The VA is mad because someone gave help to get the vets get what they are due. The VA is losing money this way. The less help and education a vet has the lesser chance he has for compensation and that is the problem.
Keep up the good work J, we are a smart community that sees good and the bad.
Man I need your help, I’m at 80% right now. And I’ve been waiting well over a year to hear about my sleep apnea. I’ve fought so hard to get this far but you could literally save my life if you had time to help me out
The Shark Fin on your back is gold!….lol
I have been at 70% for almost 8 years now. About 4 months ago i put my intent to file in and about 3 months ago i submitted. I have my last few C&P exams next month. I am hoping to get to 100%
Great sense of humor! Love the fin!
Cheers 🦈
Good information. Thank you.
Thanks again for providing the veterans with great information on the VA disability claims process.
Didn't realize how based you were. Mad respect, dude. You know what's up.
I started using a VSO in April of this year do you believe she's just getting back to me asking me to come in and sign a document I emailed her a few months ago Vets if you can listen to Jordan and or do it yourself.
Good presentation, Thank You, I am saving money to work under your teachings to get higher rates, Thanks
Jordan, you are like a straight-talkin' Billy Dee Williams of the veterans info channels! Keepin' it stylish and real my brother.
All I know is I paid over a grand to get 10 percent. To get me to a 100 percent was going to be 15000. I opted out after that. I have obtained "priceless" value from VA claims academy. I can use this information for as long as I need!
You must used a scam company them prices they charged you are way out of the norm especially 1000 for %10. I used veteran benefits guide for claims they charged me flate fee 4900 to get me 100% P&T. That's not bad at all especially after it took 3 months to get me life benefit that's going to go up over time.
They've been talking about changing the tinnitus symptom for years
I signed an agreement with two consultants. They didn't help me so they didn't get paid. There is enough free information to take to your VSO and win your claim
I should've came to you for my BDD claim...going through it now.....I had a terrible VSO. There were claims she put that weren't even in my STR!
As a veteran with 50% for ptsd and have sleep apena I won't pay a penny for something I deserve
Nothing wrong with that one bit
You will once you hit 90% and hit a brick wall in the claims process with constant denials even though it is clearly in your medical records.
May God bless U for all your help!!!
In my experience, I've used 4 VSOs over the past 17 years. Only ONE was helpful and provided a successful strategy. Due to a very poor 25% return, I educated myself with assistance from VA Academy & Combat Craig....
They way I look at is since I was a Navy Storekeeper that any asset depreciates over time. All of us Veterans are just an asset but the VA doesn't want to pay us accordingly for our cost for our use as an depreciated asset.
😂😂😂omg!! Love the Shark 🦈 fin prop/you are amazing
I’m going to the veterans service commission next week, I’ll let you know how it goes
My new favorite VA educational channel.
If you are being paid by the VA to do C&P exams and the claim denial rate for your exams is within the parameters)QUOTA),you will continue to get a lot of exam requests.If you approve too many...........No soup for you(thanks Seinfeld). All of these contractors are perpetuating their professions! Do those exams but,toe the line and stay in line!
I have 3 low weighted claims pending, one of which is on higher level review. A VSO will not help me with new sleep apnea and neck claims until the 3 pending claims are completed. Problem is that the VA is dragging their feet. My current cumulative rating is 87% which is rounded off to 90%. Can you help me with the new claims of sleep apnea and cervical spondylosis before the existing claims are settled? My OSA is helped greatly by CPAP but my neck is a wreck per a CT scan. That is assuming that I enroll in your premium program. I hope to get rated before the proposed changes.
A wise man always does the opposite of a what the government suggests.
Ok. You go ahead and do that, but if you don’t “play the game” properly with respect to a VA claim, then expect denial.
Great talk. I agree with what you say. Just want to point out your flag is hanging backwards. The star field is always in the top left regardless of whether it's horizontal or vertical.
Excellent job of being upfront about what each portion of the video is, and isn't, with respect to bias.
Well said I agree 100%. It should be up to the individual veteran.
Great vid
Nice plug for combat Craig you guys should get together someday
What's the quickest with to get you C file.
Just trying to understand. So as long as ones claim is already submitted (prior to January 1, 2024) one will not be subject to the new changes? So only new claims will have to adhere to new rules?
Real talk, my experience with VSOs is that they do the minimum and they always seem to be too busy to help.
Jordan is that a shark fin in your back? 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Haha Jordan you are killing it!
I’ve got people to 100% in under two weeks. I still do not advertise a timeline. It’s def not accurate
How
They have not officially made a decision on tinnitus and sleep apnea. It's only a proposal.
If it does pass does that mean they will take away the ones that are already getting compensated for those?
@@beezkneez7065no you would be grandfathered in...
Dealing with the VSO was so wierd they were suppose to have a meeting via telephone with me but they had the telephone conference without me and denied my claim, so then I said screw them and went to a private lawyer. I got 7 service connections all together and the Va recently rated 3 of them at 0%, But they shot themselves in the foot from doing that.. a set back for a comback!!
yes i cancelled my 1st power of attorney with the DAV and went back in for a new one and the guy was not happy. he pushed the new one over the desk to me yes pushed so i got up and walked out.
Some of the egos on this industry are massive. Sorry to hear that
I feel like the money is in the private doctor network.. that's the pain point for most vets who didn't frequently visit sick call during AD..
Bingo, the amount of $$$$ I could be making on kickbacks with a partnership with the private nexus letter companies from referrals is mind blowing.
Saw someone get a bill for $5,400 a couple weeks ago for some nexus letters and diagnoses
100% Correct. The laws give IMOs more weight than C&P Docs for a reason.
How many hours did the doctor work on it? 1.5hr for the Psych eval. Then 2-3 hours for the Nexus/DBQ. Doctors are how much per hour again? @@vaclaimsacademy
Well I used Trajectory medical it cost me over $6000.00 over a period of 4 years. I went from 30% to 70%. I know of other veterans who are using them as well. Since now my health is now affecting my job, I would love to get a 100% rating before I have to quit working completely. I need help to figure this out.
I used them for a little bit, but was completely unhappy with them. I told them I was going to go another route and they said ok. But they still email and call me monthly.
I like your shark finn on your back lol😂😂
You guys have been always very transparent and release tons of super important informational content. I suspect this whole "crack down" on consulting companies comes from the huge influx of claims post PACT Act and the govt not wanting to pay out all these new fully developed claims that informed vetarans are filing. They want to develop to deny but with the internet in this modern age that becomes more difficullt as more veterans become better educated on the process. Of course tjeres shady practices with some named companies but thats different than the peoduct you guys put out. Its no different than writing a book about cooking then having the FDA label you as a national health hazard.
That’s a good point
curious how much to c and p examining companies make per exam? wonder what the doctor contracted by qtc make per exam do you have an idea?
i found with my ptsd after i got 70& to get a lawyer to go higher on disabilites got 100% i did not care about the 1/3rd back pay they got was well worth it i could not do on my own now at 4k a month after all added up thats what mattered
What if we already submitted a claim in 2023 pending adjudication?
i want a current diagnosis, imo, nexus for secondaries and dbq for my fully developed claim. thats how i win
I went through the Wounded Warrior VSO and had 0 issues. I was able to get 100% P&T first time around. Of course it was through a BDD claim.
I had the exact opposite experience with my VSO, but I was able to get a fair BDD claim outcome by doing all the work myself.
How long after seperation did you get a decision
@@Batysimang7 I had my results 6 days after my retirement date.
I plan on filing my secondary to tinnitus, but my insurance doesn’t take effect until 2024. Am I going to get screwed? What should I do?
I would probably just open the Intent To File now to keep your spot in line and likely get grandfathered in
hey I used veteran advisor to help me get an increase, they are charging me almost 8k. im still waiting on a decision, should i just tell them i never got an increase and just ignore them?
Dont pay UNTIL YOU GET THE INCREASE..!!
Thanks for the information. I have a claim in 2024. For my back, feet
If i intent to file in 2023 but have my VES in 2024, does that matter, or does it fall back on 2023?
I gonna break it down for the not to bright folks out there me included. If my destination was just over a bridge and it cost a dollar, why would I take the scenic route to get there? Think on that a second. Love your work Jordan, you’re providing a service (The Bridge) that’s taken me to my destination (VA Claim%). All the folks wanting to take the scenic route (VSO) good luck. Remember it’s “Chess not Checkers”.
VSO failed by brother. Then the accredited VA firms for the appeal have basically screwed my brother. So far, the only one I feel has been fair is VACA. I knew the price, I received responses I needed to my questions. J has never left me hanging when I needed it.
I find the legal firms that are accredited to have contracts that don’t let you out either.
I used the VSO for my bdd claim i get out in july, can i still file for more claims? Im still pending on my disability rating. Im just concerned.
I have sleep apnea and I'm thinking of putting in a device to help me breathe with Inspire will this device take my 50% away?
love the shark fin on your back
Why is VA Claims Insider.. man they won’t leave me alone smh . Thank you for this.
Yall are doing so well Uncle Sam is realizing he cant support his kids. Now hes going to make it harder to get that support. Best analogy I could think of to make it simple to understand.
Jordan if you already have 10% for tinitis, will they just erase it from your rating after 2024? Or is that grandfathered in?!
It's grandfather in, any new changes will have an effect day.
Just remember, the clock gets reset whenever you seek reevaluation for an increase or update.
Shark fin on your back is hilarious
If I was giving an insomnia rating 2022 at 50 percent and now I am putting for mental health and other claims, can they remove my insomnia now that they count for insomnia?
You have our flag displayed incorre ctly. Star field belongs on the left side.
Can a lic professional counselor that does a psychological assessment with true psychological tests with validity scales assess for depression and or pstd but use that assessment to write a nexus letter...
Per the regs, no. Check the CFR 38 and M21-1. For those you need them to be completed by VA docs if they’re Psychological in nature. If you submit your own docs anotes and diagnosis, it may help, but you will still need to see their doctors. Dealing with that right now.
FYI because I built my network of Doctors in Asia. My Nexus and DBQs are $200-300. Is that worth $3600 for life? Hmmmmmm.
Where do you get your Nexus letters? Is $200-$300 the going rate?
I'm about 15 months out from retiring at 22 years and came across your videos and am thinking of signing up for a GM package. When do you reckon I should start the process with my claims? Thanks for the work you do brother.🍻
3-6 months from getting out, look at your medical records and file yourself for the issues you already have documented. If they aren’t documented, start getting them documented.
@@user-do5kq9kc1xthanks. It's starting to get stressful
Right now! 18 months out start the BDD claim process.
If you're AD, I recommend getting a sleep study if you have signs of apnea! Anything that hurts, get it documented.

Got CAMP LEJEUNE appeal advice? I am a widow, waiting almost a year. My husband passed away 21 years ago.
Yesterday I got a call from VA EXAM OPTUM saying my husband has an appointment for C&P exam in Wisconsin. He lived in California.
So what is happening? Is there any hope shown?
Maureen, call the VA White House Hotline. It's been a life saver for so many veterans. They have more power than the main hotline to look into situations like yours. Trump (like him or not) set it up to give veterans a voice for when the VA ignores them and their families when they have legitimate grievances.
Wait how did that get there 😮
I heard the quote ignorance is bliss 20 years ago. Took me way too long to learn the true meaning .
My wife and I have had hit and miss experiences with VSO's. We currently are going it alone now that we're properly educated.
A 1-time up front fee is way different charging on the back end for X-times the increase. The only place I would say you *need* accreditation is with a lawyer. You have different pricing options to meet the need of veterans. There are sharks out there, from what I've seen and read you are not one of them.
