Hello all,

I retired on 1 December 2011 and got my C&P exams on the 14th of December. Since it was only 14 days since retirement will I have to show proof of service connection? I am having trouble finding my records for 1 contention.

Thanks all

If the condition is chronic I don't think you will have a problem. If the condition was aquired as result of combat the military and VA is supposed to take your word for it. What kind of condition is it?

What happened to the retirement exam results?

Do they show the contention?

Unless you have a full copy of the service medical records etc. in your possession, you can be that it will be some time before they are available to you or the VA.

    • Hadit Members In Michigan

      Okemos_Veteran74 posted a topic in Social,

      I would like to meet other Hadit members who live in Michigan.  We have at least two major VA Hospitals (Battle Creek, Ann Arbor).  Or maybe you go to the the John Dingell in Detroit.  

      I like Ann Arbor.  I like the fact that most of the doctors there are also at the UM Hospital.  I don't like how uickly they seem to turn over though.

      Really?

      Holllie Greene posted a question in Appealing Your Veterans Compensation Disability Claims NOD, DRO, BVA, USCAVC,

      I am confused.  A few days ago I spoke to a person at a VARO who said if I die from something other than service-connected my husband gets zero, zilch, squat.  Hmmmmmm, it seems the rules change willy-nilly...I have been rated 100% P & T for over 10 years, MS is static, and I am 56 years of age.

      Can a fellow Veteran shed a light on this?

      Thank you.

      The site is supported through ads and ad free subscriptions, we are also asking for any support you would like to send our way. You can give a $1 or more it all helps. Keep in mind though that it is NOT tax deductible and we are NOT a non profit. As the site grows so do the costs and ads and subscription do not always keep pace with the costs. Any help is appreciated, but not required.
