At what point should a veteran apply for benefits? (Video)

Transcript:

A simple answer to that is right away because a veteran cannot obtain benefits until he applies. The application itself has to be filed and has to be recorded by the Veteran’s Administration as having been filed. A veteran should make sure his application is filed as soon as possible. The best thing to do is to one of the Veteran Service Organizations, Disabled Veterans of America, and they will help a veteran file. They will also help the veteran to determine what conditions to file for. If the claim is denied, that’s the time a veteran should be seeking professional advice. For the initial application the veteran should, in my opinion, go to one of the Veteran Service Organizations and get their application on file as soon as possible.
