Example: “I am submitting this statement to support my claim for service connection for a knee injury sustained during combat operations in Afghanistan in March 2015. This injury has significantly reduced my mobility and continues to affect my daily life.”
A lay statement for the VA should follow this format: It is your opportunity to document all the physical, mental, emotional, personal and social changes you have observed. If you served alongside them and they are using your lay statement to corroborate an in-service stressor, include a detailed account of the event.
The writer will introduce themselves by providing their name, contact information, and their relationship to the veteran. You should include how frequently you see or speak with the veteran, how long you've known one another, how you met, and any other relevant information about your relationship.
A Statement in Support of Claim will ask for your full name, Social Security number, birth date, contact information, and VA file number. Include your service details. Include your military branch, enlistment dates, and any deployments. Outline your disability.
My PTSD has negatively affected my work and my personal life significantly. I got divorced from my wife and lost custody of my children. I was fired after I could not concentrate on my job and took too many days off due to my depression. I also was doing a bad job at work because of my memory issues.
Submitting a comprehensive and articulate PTSD stressor statement involves several steps. The veteran must accurately and vividly describe the traumatic events, including dates, locations, and other pertinent details. They should also explain how these events have affected their mental health and daily life.
I still suffer from symptoms of PTSD, including nightmares, flashbacks, severe emotional distress, feelings of hopelessness, lack of interest in activities, difficulty sleeping, self-destructive behavior, memory problems, severe anger, paranoia, and feeling detached from loved ones.
Take time to sit down and complete the statement at your own pace. As best you can, describe the traumatic events in the order that they happened. Say where, when, and what unit you were in when the event happened. Provide as much detail as you're able to, and describe the feelings you had about what happened.
