Admitting to fraud is rarely a good idea. However, when seeking medical treatment, giving your provider the best possible information is generally the best plan. Unless the discharge is connected to the fraud, no one really cares. Or unless your friend is trying to claim disability linked to the fraud. Additionally, the VA, in my experience, really doesn&#39;t care about the active duty side of things. They don&#39;t care who you *were*, what you *used to* do, or where you *used to* be. They care who you are now, what you are doing now, and where you are now. Sure, they care about service-connected injuries. But only inasmuch as they affect you now. They care about combat deployments. But only inasmuch as they qualify you for benefits now. Etc.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Bottom Line: Tell the VA what is going on. Don&#39;t HIGHLIGHT the fraudulent enlistment. But be honest about what is going on, and for how long. No: &quot;I intentionally deceived the Army about my ADHD because I really wanted to serve.&quot; Yes: &quot;I still suffer from ADHD sometimes; it is something I have been dealing with since before I enlisted.&quot; SFC Casey O'Mally Sun, 09 Jan 2022 17:05:26 -0500 2022-01-09T17:05:26-05:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/can-a-person-get-into-trouble-after-being-discharged?n=7466935&urlhash=7466935 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I was never called out or got into any trouble from my ADHD. The VA prescribes my med for it.

Doubt if he would get into trouble though. SrA John Monette Mon, 10 Jan 2022 11:35:29 -0500 2022-01-10T11:35:29-05:00 2022-01-09T14:32:16-05:00
