Claim Tools

Free tools from VetClaims Alliance, a nonprofit. No account and no fees. They explain the rules; VA decides every claim.

Before you file

See which VA presumptive lists may apply to your service: PACT Act burn pits, Agent Orange, Gulf War illness, Camp Lejeune, radiation and more.

Look up how VA rates a condition: the exact rating criteria for every diagnostic code, searchable by code, name or everyday words.

What the VA exam for your condition covers, what the examiner will ask, and what to be ready to describe.

Combine your ratings the way VA does, including the bilateral factor.

Estimate back pay from VA's published rates for each year.

Military retiree? Estimate Combat-Related Special Compensation and compare it with CRDP.

Where to find free, VA-accredited help with your claim, and how to check that someone is accredited.
