Go to your VAMC they have offices and you can see in person. Just ask the info desk where the Reps are.

None of these guys return calls.

What county/state are you living in? Forget the DAV,VFW, etc.,most are worthless. ---but your "County Veterans Service Officer" should definitely be returning your calls.

You do not need a VSO to file a claim.

just do it on line at th e VA website and gather your evidence.

Dont be fooled by the promise of a VSO when all they do is nothing.

Your Better off doing it yourself and getting help from other sources.

folks here are willing to help and can arm you with the ammo that the VSO's have no desire or will to use.

Start researching your disability. This site has a lot of good info/links. See if you fit the criteria for an increase.

To ask for an increse just send the VA an old fashion letter, stating you feel your condition has gotten worse, if you have specifics, put them in there.

Lots of people will tell you to send it certified mail, I've never done that, and everything has arrived at the VA. You can also go to your local VA regional office (RO), and hand deliver info/requests.

It takes some work, researching/reading, learining all the acronyms, but it's your claim so it's worth your time.

Just my 2 cents.....Eric

yep yep, when you send something certified it only means the party on receiving end received your envelope, not the contents. In other words anyone can send an empty envelope certified. Best way is to hand submit it and get it date stamped with copy date stamped.
