I hope you enjoy reading this blog post.

If you want to learn how to implement these strategies to get the VA benefits you deserve, click here to speak with a VA claim expert for free.

In this post, we will be covering the 70 VA disability rating in detail, along with tips, strategies, and lessons learned to help veterans get the VA benefits you have earned for serving our country.

We’ve also compiled a comprehensive list of benefits available for disabled veterans with a 70 percent VA rating or higher.

In our experience at VA Claims Insider, many disabled veterans with 70 VA disability are stuck, frustrated, and underrated, meaning you do NOT currently have the VA disability compensation benefits you deserve by law.

This means you’re likely missing out on thousands of dollars of VA disability benefits for you, your spouse, and your dependents.

The good news is you can increase your VA rating from 70% to 80%, 70% to 90%, and even 70% to 100% in less time with the VA Claims Insider Elite premier education-based membership program.

Okay, so let’s jump right in and explore the 70% VA rating disability benefits in detail!

In 2020, a 70 percent VA disability rating is worth a minimum of $1,426.17 per month and is tax free at both the state and federal levels.

The 70% VA rating is often the “tipping point” for a higher VA rating, especially as disabled veterans become aware of the additional benefits available at the 100% VA rating.

According to VBA data reported to congress, 9.4% of disabled veterans or 447,330 out of 4,743,108 currently have a 70 percent VA disability rating.

A comprehensive 2020 70% VA disability pay chart is shown here for quick reference:
