Hi All

I have an upcoming VA ILP contractor coming to my home on Monday. I'm wondering what to expect or has anyone else had the pleasure of an ILP home interview.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Hi

I had one of these home visits a few months ago. It was done by a company that was contracted by the VA. The counselor was very pleasant, she stated that she usually saw Vets that were catastrophically injured(missing arms or legs). She asked about my daily living needs and about things that were difficult for me to do. She also asked if I wanted to start a hobby. It seemed to be a positive meeting, but it is hard to tell for sure since many people believe that if they can't readily see your disabilty then you don't have one. I hope things go well for you.
