Va Form 21 686c Request Guide
Hey, veterans..Travis Studdard again..Wanted to talk to you real quickly about your.21-686C form, which you will use to declare.the status of any dependents you have that.can increase your monthly benefit from the.VA..Went over that form in an earlier video and.just want to address with you real quickly.when you need to file that form..Again, you can give information on your dependents.at the time that you make your application.for disability compensation, but if you receive.an award that says you're being paid as a.single veteran with no dependents, and you.in fact have dependents, and you're over that.30% rating level, then you'll need to file.a 21-686C form..If you get that form in within one year of.the date of the letter notifying you of your.benefits, then VA will pay you back to your.effective date, so then again you can get.that additional money for all of the past.months..If you wait beyond the one year from notice.of that letter then VA can still pay you,.but they can only pay you from the date of.their receipt of the 686C..Again, very important..Always good to give that information on the.front end so you can get paid as soon as your.claim is decided, but even if you neglect.to do that, again, get it in quickly..You have up to a year, but I recommend doing.it as fast as you can so VA can process it.and you can get it dealt with within that.one year period without any problems, so if.you do that then you'll get paid all the way.back..If you wait, you can always do it later..You can do it at any time, but again, earlier.the better..If you have any other changes in your status.of your dependence, whether you add a child,.whether a child goes to live with custodial.parents elsewhere, or whatever, again, you'll.want to notify VA of that as quickly as possible.so you don't create an overpayment issue as.well..Again, that's that in a nutshell..Check out our other videos on compensation.for family members and other topics we have..We have quite a few out there..You can also check out our website, winyourvetclaim.com.and have a free consultation with us through.that website as well, or you can give us a.call on the number listed on the website..Thanks for watching this..Like this one..Check out the others as well and have a great.day..
