The VA is complicated. Your next step doesn’t have to be.

Veteran Compass Corps offers veteran-built educational tools and guides. Make sense of VA terms, learn what evidence matters, and prepare your next step without promises of a particular rating.

What do you need today?

Start with the free Claim Wizard, estimate your combined rating and monthly pay with the free VA Disability Calculator, or explore C&P exam preparation. The site guide explains where to begin and how the resources fit together.

Understand a VA letter

Letter Snap explains VA letter terminology in plain English. Explore sample denial letters, status updates, partial-grant decisions, and C&P exam summaries before using the tool.

Research and preparation

Browse the Conditions Library and DBQ Library, download the free Foundation Trial Guide, or visit the store to compare the Foundation Kit and memberships.

Education, not representation

VCC is independent of the VA. Educational resources do not replace medical care or advice from a VA-accredited representative, and no outcome is guaranteed.
