I filed a claim for asthma in 2021. I was denied because my diagnosis was more than 10 years after separation. I saw that asthma is now a presumptive illness under the new pact act, and I’m on the burn pit registry.
Does this mean that I’m now eligible since this has passed? I can’t find anything addressing this on the VA’s website.
