📣Reminder to all Veterans in #PBC:
If you filed a PACT Act Intent to File (ITF) last year, you have 365 days from then to complete and send your application to the VA!
Check your claim status at https://t.co/MHEpALpnTG or call my office at (561) 998-9045 for assistance.
If your VA rating seems lower than you were anticipating, don’t give up. Here are some next steps you can take:
Review the decision letter, gather additional evidence, request a re-evaluation, and file an appeal if necessary.
Remember, not to give up!

Dear Veterans, in the journey of navigating disability claims, remember you're never alone. Reach out to fellow veterans, support groups, or trusted professionals for guidance and assistance. Your courage and sacrifice deserve unwavering support.
When the VA receives an initial claim for benefits from a veteran, it creates a “claims folder” for that veteran. You can request a copy of your claims folder from the VA under the Federal Freedom of Information Act and the Privacy Act.
Most veterans are allowed to begin their claim between 180-90 days before separation from military service through the Benefits Delivery at Discharge (BDD).
With some exceptions, if you have less than 90 days of active duty remaining, you won’t be able to file through BDD.
