I've been out the military for 10 years and have filed for VA disability compensation. If I am granted disability compensation, will it be from when I was in the military when the disability occurred or from when I filed the claim which was about 4 months ago, assuming I've sent them all my documentation? Thanks for helping!!
Answer by Steven J
They should be paid retroactively to the disability date.

They are paid from the date the claim is filed unless the claim was filed within one year of being discharged from service. If it was filed within one year of being discharged from service and they grant then you will be entitled to benefits effective the day after you were discharged from service.
