VA Watchdog Found Errors in One-Third of Veterans’ Disability Reduction Cases

“The report found errors in several forms. In some cases, processors did not provide sufficient notice before acting on a veteran’s benefits.

In others, they failed to update rating decision code sheets, applied incorrect effective dates, or failed to take an adverse action that should have been taken.

SomeĀ veterans continued receiving payments they were no longer entitled to because reductions were not properly processed, while others had their benefits affected without the notification the law requires.”
