I am currently receiving about 30% in monthly disability benefits. What's the best way to increase this amount and how do I go about doing it?

Get assistance from whatever organization helped you with your original claim. Anything that the VA documented in your initial claim as service connected can be reviewed anytime to determine if your condition has gotten worse. However, you will be evaluated to determine if your claim is valid or not. Often the VA will determine a condition is service connected but not give a rating and service members don’t consider challenging or asking for a relook. As often as not a rating will be assigned on the relook. If you don’t ask for a relook one has no chance at an increase. You can ask for a relook at multiple things at the same time....makes the process longer, but eventually the VA will settle the case. Go see whoever originally helped file your claim!!

Service Connected Medical Documentation during and after Military Service with appropriate VA Form File. Get a State or VSO to assist you but you will need a lot of patience. If you lack patience get a
"you don"t pay unless you win" Benefit ATTORNEY. They will cut the wait time but collect 20% fee or other.

Depending what your disability is see your doctor and rep to file for a comp and pen exam to see if you rate an increase because they tell you if you get one but you sound fishy tryin get more unless you rate it
