Did the VA Use Up Your Intent to File? What Hoffman v. Collins Means for Your Claim
A recent Veterans Court decision could change how the VA applies your intent to file, and if you’ve ever submitted a supplemental claim, it’s worth knowing where you stand. Host Adam Braatz sits down with Tyler Hines and Jacob Mailander, VA accredited attorneys at Tabak Law, to unpack Hoffman v. Collins and what it may mean for intent to file protections and supplemental claims. Tyler and Jacob walk through how the case came about, why the order and timing of your filings can matter more than many veterans realize, and what questions are worth asking about your own claim history. Plenty of headlines are already making big promises about this ruling, so they’re here to help separate what it actually does from what it doesn’t.
