We’ve gathered our most commonly asked questions here, so you can feel informed, at ease, and ready to take the next step toward the support and benefits you deserve.
Can I submit a DVA claim if I am still serving?
How much compensation can I expect?
How long does the DVA claims process usually take?
Who is eligible to make a DVA claim?
Any current or former Australian Defence Force member who has sustained an injury or illness related to their service may be eligible. Our team assesses each case individually to determine your best path forward under the relevant legislation.
What kind of medical evidence do I need?
Medical reports, specialist assessments, and diagnostic tests all help prove the link between your condition and your service. We guide you in securing the right evidence so your claim clearly demonstrates its merits.
Do I need a lawyer to submit my claim?
You don’t necessarily need a lawyer to file a DVA claim. Our Veteran-led team has deep knowledge of DVA legislation and provides comprehensive support—minimising legal costs while ensuring your claim is handled with skill and care.
Can I still claim if my condition developed after I left the service?
Yes. Many service-related injuries or illnesses take time to manifest. As long as you can show that your condition is related to your service, you may still be eligible for compensation—even if symptoms appeared years later.
Still have questions?
Absolutely worth it! These guys really know their stuff—professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly helpful. Their response time was fantastic, and they provided excellent support every step of the way. Highly recommended!
Very happy with VCA. Tyson was nothing but helpful and committed throughout the entire time and always happy to chat and answer any questions. Would recommend others to go there! Very happy with their services.
Words cannot describe how amazing these guys are! After 2 years of being left with little to no information from DVA on how to pursue compensation for my injury, VCA were able to help me so much. Tyson Head who works at VetComp is professional, punctual and knows exactly what he is doing.
I used another DVA advocate in the past. They didn’t really listen to my story and there were lots of claims they didn’t address. I can’t rate the guys at VetComp high enough. Not only did they manage the entire claims process, they also gave me the space to open up.
The support that I received from Tyson and the team was immeasurable. I had spent just over three years attempting to navigate the archaic DVA system and got nowhere with very limited support . But with the assistance of Tyson, I was able to access the support I needed almost immediately.
Went with VetComp for my DVA claims and highly recommend them to anyone going through the process. Tyson was my advocate and helped guide me through the whole process and communicated very effectively. Using them made the process less stressful then it possibly could have been and was a very smooth process.
Vetcomp were amazing to deal with, they supported me during the entire process and I would wholly recommend them to any prior service member.
The team are amazing, they respond back within 10 minutes most days when sending out emails and always call me to check up on me, they helped me when I had heaps of questions and recommended me things that I wasn’t going to do in the first place.
