Feb Problems
Q ? I was told that my disability,
which I claim was due to service,
cannot be service-connected be
cause I had it before I entered ser
vice. Am I eligible for compensa
tion?
A ? If VA decides that your ail
ment was incurred in or aggravat
ed by your service in the armed
forces you will be entitled to re
ceive compensation, if it exists to
a compensable degree.
Q ? I am a veteran of World War
I and would like to know if there
is any limit for filing a claim for
compensation for disability caused
by my war service?
A ? There is no time limit set
for filing claim for compensation
under existing legislation.
Q ? I was practically compelled
to sign a statement before my dis
charge that my disability existed
prior to my enlistment. Will this
prevent my receiving compensa
tion?
A ? Any statement of this nature,
according to the Servicemen's Re
adjustment Act (G-I Bill), which
you made at discharge is consider
ed null and void. Decision as to
service connection of the disabili
ty will be made by Veterans Ad
ministration based on the service
medical record, excluding the
statement made at time of dis
charge.
Q ? I have been receiving read
justment allowance from Veterans
Administration, and now would
like to know if the money that has
been paid to me will be deducted
from any future bonus that may be
authorized by the U. S. Congress?
