VA 6 part video on UTube showing the claims process
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

The VA recently published a new, six-part video series that gives an in-depth overview of the Fully Developed Claim (FDC) Program. The series shares program qualifications and requirements, steps to apply, and important tips to keep in mind throughout the process.

Promoting the FDC Program for disability compensation, pension, dependency and indemnity compensation, and survivors pension helps Veterans and surviving dependents receive the fastest decisions possible on their claims. Veterans are strongly encouraged to file their disability compensation claim online through eBenefits. It provides them with better service and helps to reduce the claims backlog.

See the results for yourself!

As of January 24, 2015, FDC claims are being processed on average 27% faster than non-FDC claims.

Learn more about how the FDC Program has gotten so many Veterans and surviving dependents faster decisions on their claims by checking out the FDC Overview Video series today! And make sure you recommend the FDC Program to eligible Veterans and surviving dependents and share these videos with your friends and colleagues.
