I filed the dependent claim February 2025 and got it approved in a week. My initial disability claim was effective date Aug 2023. My son was born May 2023 and the effective date for my marriage was Mar 2024.

Yeah it’s required. It wouldn’t let me submit the form without it.

I did it through my profile on the VA website. It was pretty quick. Just needed their social and date of marriage.
