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.

Jessica, Travis, and his team are nothing short of angels. I was not making progress, so I spent 6 months researching law firms. I'm beyond grateful that they took the time to help me and I'm confident that no other firm could have gotten the same results. The process was the most difficult and mentally defeating experience of my life, but they took 100% of the bourdon off of my shoulders. They communicated every step of the long and overly complicated process. I'm forever indebted to these people and I will never forget them. Every Christmas I pause to think about my guys who didn't make it home, and I'll keep this team in my thoughts during those hard times. I know it's difficult, but there are people like Travis and his team out there willing and able to help. To the warriors, keep your head up and stay in the fight.Michael

I highly recommend Travis and Jessica at Perkins Studdard to anyone looking for people who genuinely care about their customers. Thank you both for everything!Joe Tarno
They got me over $100,000 in back pay. Got me to 100% P&T.James Powell
I initially started my workers’ compensation case with another attorney. Although he was a good attorney, I eventually realized that I needed a different level of communication and support throughout my case. After searching online, I came across Jason Perkins and decided to give him a try. I can truly say that I have not regretted that decision. One of the things I appreciated most about Jason and his team was how responsive and communicative they were. Having an attorney who kept me informed was extremely important to me. I never felt like I had to constantly call and ask what was happening with my case or where things stood. Whenever there was movement or an important update, Jason and his team made sure I knew about it. I always felt informed and included throughout the process. Jason was also straightforward with me and consistently gave me what he believed was the best advice for my situation. My case was a lengthy process, but having an attorney I trusted and knowing that my case was being handled properly made that process much easier to get through. I never felt like I was just another case or that I was being left in the dark. Looking back, I am very glad that I made the decision to switch attorneys and work with Jason Perkins. He and his team gave me the communication, guidance, and reassurance I needed throughout a very long process. I would absolutely recommend Jason to anyone looking for a workers’ compensation attorney who will communicate with you, keep you informed, and genuinely work to get the best possible outcome for your case.Christina Barrett

I recently needed a lawyer for a Workers Compensation Inj. The Dr. I saw ordered back surgery. The company declined to approve the surgery. So i went to the Law firm of Perkins & Studdard, as they were highly recommended…Mr. Studdard is a Veterans Affairs Lawyer. Mr. Perkins & his staff handled my case… every person in the firm were nice, helpful, and showed empathy for my situation. Mr. Perkins is very thorough & at the same time worked diligently for me. He got me compensated fairly. If not for this Law firm im not sure what i would’ve done. Thankfully they lowered my stress and communicated regularly. If you need help with an injury etc… Perkins & Studdard is who I highly recommend!!!tim copley
After my VA claim was denied, I felt defeated, depressed, and overwhelmed. I spent a lot of time researching different agencies, only to find that many of them made promises they couldn't back up and were not properly accredited. I decided to give Perkins Studdard LLC a chance because they were accredited, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I've ever made. From the very beginning, Jessica, Travis, and the entire team were professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping me navigate the VA claims and appeals process. Their guidance, communication, and dedication made a difficult process much easier to manage. Thanks to their hard work and expertise, I finally received the benefits I had been fighting for. I highly recommend Perkins Studdard LLC to any veteran seeking assistance with a VA claim or appeal. Don't waste your time elsewhere—this team truly cares and delivers outstanding service.nelson figueroa
