Know your eligibility in filing a claim if your kidney cancer developed after discharge
There is no deadline for filing a claim for financial compensation. Therefore, veterans can file a claim anytime as long as they develop a disease related to their service. If your kidney cancer appeared at least one year after discharge, you need to meet these requirements to be eligible for compensation:
- Your condition is at least 10% disabling and appeared a year after discharge
- You did not receive a dishonorable discharge
If your cancer appeared years later, you could still file a claim for compensation as long as you served on active duty, active duty for training, or inactive duty training. If you get a disability rating, you may also receive different VA benefits like free check-ups, appointments with specialists, insurance, travel pay, and more.
