The first thing that happens when you file for compensation is that a representative of the DVA (Department of Veterans Affairs) meets with you to discuss what has happened to you. He/she will explain to you the reason why they think you deserve compensation, and what you can expect to receive.
Once the DVA has assessed your claim, they can decide whether you are eligible for compensation and then they will provide you with a decision notice. If you are granted compensation, you will receive a Statement of Account, which shows the Hgv medical Wolverhampton amount of money you are entitled to. They will also send you an estimate of what you are likely to receive.
The time that the DVA takes to process your compensation claims will depend on several factors. For example, if the injury that you sustained occurred more than five years ago, it may take a longer time to process your claim. You can apply for an expedited decision.
However, you should only apply for an expedited decision if the reason for the delay is reasonable and valid. This means that you shouldn’t wait around for several months hoping that your claim will be processed faster. It is important to be patient and not to take this situation lightly.
