Sharm Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I'm putting together a claim package to be submitted (hip replacement) , should I also file for my PTSD claim at the same time? The hip replacement is for a "New" claim PTSD is for a "New" claim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Moderator broncovet Posted September 2, 2020 Moderator Share Posted September 2, 2020 It depends if you need money or not. If you need money, file for both ASAP. If you just won the lottery, it wont matter. Your effective date is usually "limited" by the date you file. Earlier file date = more retro when you get approved. Conversely, Later file date = less retro, when approved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
