VetClaim: VA Disability

Not a government app. Not affiliated with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs. VA disability math is not addition. 30% and 20% is 40%, not 50% - and almost nothing explains why. VetClaim shows you every step. SEE THE WORKING, NOT JUST THE NUMBER Every figure comes with the arithmetic and the regulation it comes from: 38 CFR 4.25 for combining, 4.26 for the bilateral factor, 4.68 for the amputation rule. Take it to your VSO and they can check it in a minute. WHAT IT DOES - Combined rating, calculated exactly as VA does it, including the bilateral factor and the 2023 most favorable exception - Monthly VA compensation from the current published rate tables, with dependants - Special Monthly Compensation, SMC(k) through SMC-T - Hearing loss rated properly from your audiogram (38 CFR 4.85 Tables VI, VIa and VII) - VA back pay estimate, including the first month VA does not pay (38 CFR 3.31) - Deadlines for Intent to File and the one-year appeal window, each with the rule behind it - What would change: the smallest new rating that would move you up a band - A plain-text summary to hand to your Veterans Service Officer YOUR CLAIM STAYS ON YOUR PHONE No account. No sign-up. No server holding your claim. Your claim data is encrypted on your device with SQLCipher, under a key held in the iOS Keychain that never leaves the phone — your conditions, ratings, dates and figures are never uploaded. The app does send anonymous crash reports and basic usage counts, so faults get found and fixed. Those carry no name, no condition, no rating and no dollar amount — only that something happened, and where it broke. FREE All of the above, with no paywall, no ads and no in-app purchases. Your VA award letter is the authoritative record. VetClaim is an independent tool to help you understand it. VSO help is free - use it.
