Discuss on Reddit

Prove your toxic exposure today—complete VA’s Burn Pit Registry in under an hour. Log in at VA.gov, search “Airborne Hazards and Burn Pit Registry,” finish the questionnaire, then download your confirmation page and exposure summary. Upload both to your active claim under “Other evidence,” and reference them in your statement so the rater can’t miss it. If you haven’t filed yet, save the PDFs and attach them on day one. This locks in exposure details and symptoms tied to the PACT Act presumptives.
