VA Fully Developed Claims Program
U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs
Disability claim process for claimants who submit all available evidence with a complete application.
How to get help
File the fully developed disability claim online, by mail, fax, in person, or with a trained professional, and submit evidence at the same time. Later submission of additional evidence moves the claim to the standard process; VA can still request federal records and schedule an exam.
Who this service helps
The claimant must file VA Form 21-526EZ, submit all available private medical, service treatment, personnel, and other relevant evidence with the claim, identify federal records VA should obtain, certify that no more evidence is needed, and attend requested exams.
Where this service is available
Service area: Nationwide federal disability-claim option available to eligible claimants in all assigned West Texas counties.

About this service
The Fully Developed Claims program can support a faster disability-benefit decision when the claimant provides a complete VA Form 21-526EZ, submits all available supporting evidence at filing, certifies that no additional evidence is needed, and attends any required VA exams.
