    Have Questions? Get Answers.

    Tips on posting on the forums.

    1. Post a clear title like ‘Need help preparing PTSD claim’ or “VA med center won’t schedule my surgery” instead of ‘I have a question.
       
    2. Knowledgeable people who don’t have time to read all posts may skip yours if your need isn’t clear in the title.
      I don’t read all posts every login and will gravitate towards those I have more info on.
       
    3. Use paragraphs instead of one massive, rambling introduction or story.
       
      Again – You want to make it easy for others to help. If your question is buried in a monster paragraph, there are fewer who will investigate to dig it out.
     
    Leading too:

    exclamation-point.pngPost straightforward questions and then post background information.
     
     
    Examples:
     
    • Question A. I was previously denied for apnea – Should I refile a claim?
      • Adding Background information in your post will help members understand what information you are looking for so they can assist you in finding it.
    Rephrase the question: I was diagnosed with apnea in service and received a CPAP machine, but the claim was denied in 2008. Should I refile?
     
    • Question B. I may have PTSD- how can I be sure?
      • See how the details below give us a better understanding of what you’re claiming.
    Rephrase the question: I was involved in a traumatic incident on base in 1974 and have had nightmares ever since, but I did not go to mental health while enlisted. How can I get help?
     
    This gives members a starting point to ask clarifying questions like “Can you post the Reasons for Denial of your claim?”
     
    Note:
     
    • Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed. This process does not take long.
    • Your first posts on the board may be delayed before they appear as they are reviewed. The review requirement will usually be removed by the 6th post. However, we reserve the right to keep anyone on moderator preview.
    • This process allows us to remove spam and other junk posts before hitting the board. We want to keep the focus on VA Claims, and this helps us do that.

    You’ve just been rated 100% disabled by the Veterans Affairs. After the excitement of finally having the rating you deserve wears off, you start asking questions. One of the first questions that you might ask is this: It’s a legitimate question – rare is the Veteran that finds themselves sitting on the couch eating bon-bons … Continue reading

This website does great work in the Veteran community and we need to make sure it continues to do so!  If you can do so, please donate during the fundraiser.

For those of us that have been on this site for a longer period of time, I challenge YOU.  I'm committing to $150 a month for the next 12 months.  One time donations are great, but this site has bills every month.  If this is something you can swing, please consider an ongoing donation that will 1) help insure the site stays up; 2) takes some of the stress off @Tbird; and 3) help make sure this valuable site and its services aren't battered by current economic winds.

#Teamwork

  I THINK A 150.00  A MONTH FOR EVERYONE IS WAY TO MUCH FOR THE AVERAGE VET.

SO maybe if some of the members can send in what they can and don't hurt themselves,  it all will add up..all of us that stay on hadit should donate what they can and not hurt their family's   this should be at least be enough to keep hadit up and running. (jmo)

I agree @Buck52.  Don't hurt yourself or your families.  Give what you can afford and are motivated to give.  This is a rough time for lots of folks.  I am fortunate to have a great job (VA) and my hours have INCREASED during the pandemic.  In my (limited) experience, the number of VA compensation claims are exploding right now.  There's never been a bigger need (IMO) for this website to help Veterans/families with their claims.  🙂

As Buck says, it's up to the individual and only they know what they can afford. But Ms. Tbird needs our help; she can't continue to do this all by herself. If you get help from an outside source, like an Agent or lawyer, it sure will cost a lot more than a small monthly commitment to subscription. Please consider contributing.

#ANYONE touching/reading this Forum or any part of it can Subscribe like I just did at 5 bucks a month.

And I do mean "Anyone". IF a "Low Income Senior" who Medicare told; "You are a QMB, henceforth do not pay any medical billing",

IF he/she can do this can't you as well? Five bucks a month commitment???!!!
