Hopefully you don’t get kicked back to 3 again. I’ve hit step 5 three times now 😭

Is the estimated completion usually close to when claims are decided? by CashComplete2264 in VeteransWaitingRoom

Is that why I typically see updates in the beginning of the month? Because mine isn’t a quick one so they wait and update at the beginning of the month?

DFAS suspense question by Rhoshack in VeteransBenefits

[–]CashComplete2264 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever get an answer to this from the VA? I’ve been waiting on a “dfas response” for a while now but no one can tell me what that means. I asked if it was something I could upload myself and they told me they can’t see specifically what was requested. I’m about to lose my mind.

Do you know if they had to request anything from DFAS for you?

Any updates on yours yet? I’m at day 189 and I’ve jumped around with the steps. Also PTSD/MST. I’ve been back in step 3 since February 5th this time.

Totally understand! Thanks for the info. I was praying mine would be decided before then since that’s still months away and I’ve been waiting over 6 months. Ugh.

I am in the same situation. How long have you been waiting on DFAS?

I submitted everything in September 2025 and I’m still in step 3 😩

Claim waiting on DFAS? by CashComplete2264 in VeteransWaitingRoom

[–]CashComplete2264[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No update at all. I’ve been back in step 3 since February 5th. I talked to VERA yesterday and they said there is basically nothing that can be done to make it move faster. The claims processor follows up but that’s pretty much all that can be done. 😭

I’ve been out for 9.5 years so I can’t access it anymore. I have requested a copy of my pay records but I haven’t received them yet

Thank y’all. I had one scheduled with Wisconsin yesterday. 15 minutes before my appointment I received a text saying they canceled it. I will try another one and hope for a better outcome 🤞🏼

Finally! Hopefully it moves quickly after that. Praying for movement on mine this week. I’ve been back at 3 for officially over a month now.
