Do to the overwhelming number of veterans returning from the wars over the past decade, the Veterans Adminitration has been bombarded with new claims. Understandably, it now takes much longer for a claim to be prossessed and a decision be made, sometimes up to several years. Unfortunatly, when a veterans disabilities render him/her Unemployable it is very difficult to wait several years with no income. If V.A. would create a position to go through all of the Individual Unemployability claims, approve the claims that obviously meet the set criteria and pass the rest on to the trained teams that currantly handle all claims, this would for very little cost, speed up the intire claim prossess, possibly hire several unemployed veterans and lower the homeless veteran rate drastically.
