Independent educational resource

Disclaimer and important limitations

VetCompPlanner helps veterans understand calculations and organize benefit-planning information. It is not the Department of Veterans Affairs and does not make official decisions.

Not an official VA tool

VetCompPlanner is independently developed and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or approved by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs or another government agency.

Estimates are not determinations

Calculator and benefit results are educational estimates based on entered facts and reviewed sources. They do not guarantee a rating, payment, approval, effective date, or eligibility.

No legal or medical advice

The site does not provide legal advice, medical advice, diagnosis, representation, or an individual claim strategy.

Confirm with the responsible authority

Official determinations come from VA or the government agency that administers a program. Current official sources control when they differ from an educational summary.

Get individual help when you need it

A VA-accredited VSO representative, claims agent, or attorney can help with an individual claim. A qualified medical professional can address medical questions.
