For an existing disability claim
VA says the claim-status tool can be used to upload additional supporting evidence while a disability claim is pending. Other documents may require QuickSubmit or another designated VA route.
Examples of supporting records
VA mentions medical test results, doctor reports, and other relevant documents. Review the current upload portal for file formats, size rules, and submission confirmation.
Keep your own copy
Maintain the original and any submission receipt or confirmation in your document library. Uploading a file here never sends it to VA.
Timing
VA advises submitting evidence as soon as possible. The exact procedural deadlines vary, so use the current official instructions for your individual filing stage.
Key things to know
- The appropriate upload route may depend on what you are submitting.
- Keep each document in an accepted format and within VA portal restrictions.
- Uploading to this private organizer does not send anything to the VA.
