Top Myths About VA Disability Claims and Why They Are Wrong!

Misinformation continues to prevent thousands of Veterans from receiving the VA disability support they deserve. In an effort to cut through confusion and equip Veterans with the truth, True Vet Solutions has released a new article: “Top Myths About VA Disability Claims and Why They Are Wrong”. The post addresses the most common misconceptions that keep Veterans from pursuing the VA Benefits owed to them after service.

This new resource provides not only myth-busting insights but also a practical roadmap to navigate the often-overwhelming VA disability claims process. For Veterans across Texas, this marks an important step toward securing fair treatment and accurate evaluations.

Common Myths Continue to Delay VA Disability Claims

Veterans are still regularly misinformed by outdated advice, non-official sources, or assumptions passed along by others. Some of the most damaging myths include:

• Employment automatically disqualifies a claim.
  Veterans may still qualify for VA disability benefits even while employed, as the VA evaluates how a service-connected condition impacts a specific work capability—not whether a job is held.

• There is a time limit after discharge.
  Many Veterans believe too much time has passed to apply. The truth is that claims may still be approved years after service, especially as symptoms emerge later in life.

• Mental health conditions are unlikely to be approved.
  Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, and depression are legitimate service-connected conditions. When supported with proper evidence, these claims are taken seriously by evaluators.

• A denial means the process is over.
  VA decisions can be appealed. Many successful claims are approved during the appeals stage with additional medical documentation or clarification.

Steps Veterans Can Take to Strengthen Their VA Disability Claims

The process of submitting a VA disability claim can be made more efficient and successful with a few practical steps:

• Gather detailed documentation.
  Strong claims are supported by military service records, treatment history, and statements from licensed physicians clearly connecting the condition to service.

• Use specific examples and functional impact statements.
  Describing how the condition impacts daily life, work duties, or physical/mental functioning improves the accuracy of the rating evaluation.

• Partner with experienced advocates or resource organizations.
  Companies such as True Vet Solutions help Veterans organize documentation, navigate the VA portal, and identify opportunities for appeal.

• Stay organized and meet all deadlines.
  Keeping track of communications, requests, and appointments increases efficiency and reduces processing delays.

Statement from Tracy Glover, Owner of True Vet Solutions

"Veterans often arrive having been told they don’t qualify for VA disability support because they’re working or because their case was denied once," said Tracy Glover, founder of True Vet Solutions. "In one case, a Veteran suffering from migraines caused by years of field exposure had been denied twice. Once the documentation was aligned correctly and a detailed medical opinion was added, the claim was approved within two months."

"Every claim has to tell a clear story—how the condition started during service, and how it impacts daily life today. Precision, consistency, and professional support make the difference."

The Importance of Understanding and Accessing VA Benefits

Veterans in Texas are often eligible for a wide range of VA Benefits but remain unaware or unsure about how to access them. These benefits include:

• Tax-free monthly compensation

• Access to VA healthcare and specialists

• Employment and vocational rehabilitation services

• Survivor and family support programs

Applying for VA disability support helps improve not only personal health and finances but also strengthens long-term stability for families.

Key Reminders for Veterans Pursuing Disability Claims

• A denial is not the final outcome. Appeals often succeed.

• Time since discharge does not eliminate eligibility.

• Support is available from trained advocates who understand both the system and the struggles.

• Documentation and specific examples are the most powerful tools in any VA claim.
