I am ETSing at the end of January. I’ve completed my SFL and began the VA process. I finished the paperwork for the VA disability, but was told it may take “months” before they schedule my physical exams. Is this normal? Is there anything I should be doing in the meantime?
 
Normal the VA is behind on exams for applicants in the BDD program.
 
I recommend you download and complete the appropriate DBQs. You will eventually be asked to complete them. It is easier to complete them when you have access to resources than in the office of the C&P examiner. It allows you the opportunity to look up facts and ask Google about terms that may not be familiar. DBQs can be found at:
