To apply for disability compensation through Veteran Assistance, you’ll need to submit a claim to the VA. The process typically involves these steps:

1. Gather documentation, including your DD-214, medical records, and any evidence supporting your service-related disability.
2. Visit the VA website or work with a Veterans Service Officer (VSO) to help you with the application process.
3. Fill out the appropriate VA disability compensation form, either online or in paper format.
4. Submit your claim and any supporting documentation to the VA.
5. Await a decision from the VA, which may involve a Compensation & Pension (C&P) exam to evaluate your disability.
