Statute of limitations on disability claims

Thanks Johnny. The injury and incident are on file and I have the docs somewhere.

Hi Vet 1234, welcome. As far as I know there’s no time limit when you can do a claim. Hopefully you have some med docs, record to back it up. Once’s it in, Vac will send you the forms, and one of those will be a new dr,s report, that you’ll need. Get the dr, or better still specialist to be very detailed. Worst thing is to put it all in, then wait 2 yrs, and get it suspended as there’s not enough evidence. So be very detailed the first time, reports, accident write up, etc. Hope this helps...Johnny Out,,VVV

I have a shoulder injury that has never healed properly. I was in a vehicle accident during an exercise in Petawawa. The vehicle flipped and I injured my shoulder. I have had issues with my shoulder and overcompensated with the other shoulder, now both are messed up. This was about 15 years ago. Should I make a claim? Is there a limit on time passed since initial injury?
