About this listen

Understanding what happens after you file your VA claim is just as important as the filing itself. In this episode, Tim Woods, 23-year vet, and Anthony Boyd, 9-year vet, break down what the VA's decision really means — whether you receive a rating, get denied, or get referred for more information.

They walk you through how to read your rating letter, what to do if your claim is denied, and how Supplemental Claims, Higher-Level Reviews, and Board Appeals work. You'll also learn what a deferral means, why the VA sometimes sends you for additional exams, and how to respond quickly to protect your effective date.

This episode focuses on helping veterans understand the decision phase so they can take the right next steps with confidence — no matter what the VA's response.
