Important terms, Policies, and Disclosures
Last updated: July 23, 2026
BDD Blueprint and The Complete BDD Field Guide are independently created educational resources intended to help service members understand, prepare for, and organize the Benefits Delivery at Discharge process.
BDD Blueprint is a privately operated business. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, approved by, endorsed by, or operated by the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, the Department of Defense, any branch of the United States Armed Forces, any government agency, or any Veterans Service Organization.
The information provided on this website and within its digital products is for general educational and informational purposes only. It is not legal advice, medical advice, financial advice, mental-health advice, representation before the Department of Veterans Affairs, or individualized assistance with a VA disability claim.
BDD Blueprint is not acting as a VA-accredited attorney, claims agent, Veterans Service Organization representative, medical provider, or financial adviser. Veterans and service members seeking individualized claim assistance or representation should consult a properly accredited representative. The VA recognizes accredited VSO representatives, attorneys, and claims agents as the professionals authorized to provide qualified representation on VA benefit claims.
Every claim is unique and is evaluated based on the claimant’s service history, medical evidence, supporting records, examinations, applicable laws and regulations, and the Department of Veterans Affairs’ independent determination.
The BDD program generally allows eligible service members to file a pre-discharge disability claim between 180 and 90 days before leaving active duty, but eligibility requirements, procedures, forms, and timelines may change. Users should verify all current requirements directly through VA.gov before filing or taking action.
The guide is intended to help purchasers organize their own information and better understand the general process. It does not submit claims, prepare claims on another person’s behalf, communicate with the VA for purchasers, provide representation, diagnose medical conditions, determine eligibility, select conditions to claim, predict ratings, or advise anyone to provide inaccurate, incomplete, or misleading information.
Users are solely responsible for:
- Confirming their eligibility and filing window
- Reviewing current official VA instructions
- Meeting all filing and response deadlines
- Attending required medical examinations
- Accurately describing their symptoms and limitations
- Submitting complete and truthful information
- Reviewing documents before submission
- Maintaining copies of records and correspondence
- Seeking professional assistance when appropriate
Although reasonable efforts are made to provide accurate and useful information, BDD Blueprint does not guarantee that all content is complete, current, error-free, or applicable to every individual situation. VA rules, forms, websites, policies, filing methods, and procedures may be revised after publication.
Any timelines, examples, checklists, strategies, personal experiences, or sample scenarios are provided only to explain the process. They are not promises, predictions, or evidence that another person will receive the same result.
References to VA programs, forms, websites, military branches, government agencies, or publicly available government information are used solely for educational and identification purposes. All government names, trademarks, seals, forms, and materials remain the property of their respective owners.
