How to Purchase a Nexus Letter

If you want a Nexus Letter for VA disability benefits, please follow the steps below to ensure a smooth and efficient process.

• Identify Your Condition:
• Clearly state the condition you are claiming. If you already have a diagnosis, mention your current rated diagnosis. This information helps establish a clear medical link between your service and the condition.
• Submit Medical Records:
• Provide all relevant medical records related to the condition, including service treatment records, VA medical records, and any private physician’s notes. This documentation is essential for the medical provider to form a strong, evidence-based opinion.
• Describe the Injury or Onset:
• Write one paragraph describing the injury or condition onset. Include details such as the date of occurrence, circumstances surrounding the injury, and any progression of symptoms over time. This helps contextualize your condition within your military service history.
• Allow 30-Day Turnaround Time:
• Once the above information is submitted, expect a 30-day turnaround time for the completion of the Nexus Letter. This timeframe allows the provider to thoroughly review your medical history and provide a comprehensive statement.
• Payment:
• Pay the required fee in full before the letter is prepared. This ensures the process can begin without delays.

Note: After receiving your letter, review it carefully and submit it to the VA along with your claim.
