Additional disability

Hi everyone, I hope I have a simple question. At what point will I add additional injuries/disabilities to be rated? Will this be at the initial MEB package submission or will this be done during the VA exam or later? Thank you in advance everyone
 
You should have a scheduled appointment with the VA Military Service Coordinator (MSC) who "should" go through your service treatment record and help you with your benefit delivery at discharge claim. I'm putting "should" because they may not have enough time during your appointment to do your claim the full service it deserves. I would HIGHLY recommend that you request a copy of your medical records and review them yourself for what may be applicable towards a claim. Have that list ready at the time of your MSC appointment.

You have 12 months post separation to submit another claim for anything you think may have been missed, however, best to get it all done as soon as possible.
