Can my veterans' disability rating increase or decrease?
Yes. Unless the veterans Administration (VA) specifically states that the rating decision assigned to you is a permanent and total rating, it can increase or decrease. The VA may periodically call you for examinations to determine if your disability has changed. It is important to know that failure to meet these examination requests, can result in a reduced rating. If you feel you may need representation in a VA disability case, contact our VA disability lawyer team today to discuss your possible next steps.
