I Know there'd is a one year time limit on claiming injuries with the VA when you return from a deployment, but I seem to recall something about that not applying to PTSD stuff. I am curious because I got back from Iraq about 2 years ago now, and recently I have been having... Issues with both anger and that nervous hyper alert sensation that makes you just feel scared all the time. Anyone know if you. An still claim PTSD after the one year time limit? Even if it is just to get treatment?

Also, let a VSO rep prepare your filing paperwork. The guy I saw went through my entire medical history page by page.

I was only going to claim two things but with his encouragement I ended up claiming five. One of the things I wasn't going to claim ended up being rated at 30%.

This can never be said enough.
CLAIM EVERYTHING. No matter how silly, or minor you think it is, or how much of a pussy you think it makes you look like for complaining. Claim it, this is your one, ONE chance to get you comeuppance, do not gently caress it up.
