Department of Veterans Affairs Reduces Paperwork Burden for Veterans Receiving Benefits

According to an article at stripes.com, veterans received some good news recently when the VA decided to no longer require veterans to complete the annual Eligibility Verification Report.  This report had required veterans to annually complete a form and submit a set of supporting documents to ensure that they did not lose their benefits.  Instead, the VA will now use information from the IRS and Social Security Administration to confirm a veteran’s ongoing eligibility for benefits.

The VA also has indicated that this move will allow them to shift about 100 members of their staff to other areas.  This shift should help reduce the accumulated backlog of VA claims.  This would be good news for veterans since they would no longer encounter as much delay while they wait for a decision after applying for benefits.

Travis Studdard is an attorney who focuses on representing veterans in VA disability compensation claims.  He regularly writes about issues that are important to veterans and their families.

My experience with this firm was overwhelmingly awesome! My attorney is very knowledgeable in veteran law and the rest of the staff is polite and they answer emails in a timely manner. I definitely recommend Perkins Studdard for you VA claim needs.Juan Armenta
Couldn’t be happier with the service they provided me. After so much time spent working with the VA to grant me disability for my service connected disabilities I was denied. Exhausted with the process and ready to give up a friend recommended this firm to assist me with an appeal. They handled all of it, keeping me updated regularly on progress, and eventually getting me the disability rating that was due. This was the happiest I’ve been to pay an invoice for services received.Kendall Lucy
100 % recomendable, in my humble opinion they are the best. I am very grateful with their assistance in filling my claim with the VA and winning They have done an outstanding job. They are professional ThanksFrancisco Javier Pérez A
They assessed my case as being potentially tdiu qualified and got to work right away. I only provided the information they asked me for and let them do their work. I didn’t hound them, I didn’t pester them, I just let them do their work and provided what they asked for and trusted the process. Within a few months or so I was awarded a tdiu rating. In my case I’m a combat vet of oef, but the Va had denied me twice for a benefit that I know I qualified for. The Perkins-studdard firm got the the benefit I deserved and I am eternally grateful for their expertise and hard work.M C
