Given everything that veterans have done to serve our country, many assume that when a veteran has suffered a disability, receiving the benefits they’re owed would be a given.

Unfortunately, this is not always the case.

The Basics of Veteran Disability Insurance

If you sustained an injury or illness during your active military service, you might qualify for benefits through the Veteran’s Disability program. The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs provides tax-free compensation for service-related disabilities.

Whether you developed a new medical condition or exacerbated a preexisting condition, you may be eligible for benefits. You could apply for benefits even if you didn’t sustain your disabling injury or illness during actual combat. Compensation is available to those who got hurt during training or performing tasks on the base.

How to File a Veteran Disability Claim There are various methods for filing a claim. 

Online: You can file your claim online by answering a few basic questions, which will take you to the form you’ll need to complete.
